With all the hype over what should and should not be illegal, lets take a long hard look at chocolate. Man i'll tell you it's some good stuff. When your heart is broken, when you feel good, when you feel bad, mad,sad,happy it's always good.
You can eat it with anything too. You can eat it on oatmeal, bananas, apples, oranges. Or you can be really bad and eat it on ice cream, candy, or even more chocolate.
I think i'll start my own experiment. To see how much chocolate it would take to make you pass out. It could happen you know. Chocolate is intoxicating.
So the next time congress starts passing new laws, maybe some of us should start lobbying for some laws on chocolate.

what does my heavenly father expect from me
What do I believe my heavenly father expects from me?
I believe that he expects me to love my neighbor as myself. Now you can interperet this in many different ways. I interperet it exactly as it is written.
He expects me to be honest in all I do. That includes not lying by ommision.
He expects me to raise my children in the gospel. To learn of him. And to give my children an example to live by.
He expects me to pray daily. To seek his guidance in all I do. To thank him for my many blessing that come only through him.
To forgive others tresspasses as he has forgiven mine. Now please do not take this to mean I will forgive but not forget. True forgiveness comes with forgeting the tresspasses against you also.
There are many other things the lord expects from me. These however are some of the ones I feel most strongly about.

What is happening in public schools?
When I was in school we knew very little about our teachers private lives. In fact it was almost as if the only life they had was at school. Now in some ways that may have been a bad thing. you can certainly relate more and learn more from a person who seems real however some of the teachers now a days are going way to far. Last year when my oldest daughter was in fourth grade she came home telling me about her teachers divorce. excuse me? This is adult conversation under the best of terms. Unless you are the child of the person who is divorcing. Now get this ,her gym teacher also thought it was appropriote to tell the girls about how she likes to go clubbing and "break it down". Okay, so chances are girls will look up to you as a teacher, some would say even as a role model. How about we just allow a local prostitute to be their mentor, I am beggining to think it would not be much worse.Now please don't get me wrong there are plenty of awesome teachers out there who are wonderful examples to our children. It's just to bad theres a few bad apples are making them all pay.

Yes I am mormon
Okay so I 've recently told my husband and children that I would stop letting other people annoy me by trying to tell me what my beliefs are. According to other people, I dont believe in Jesus Christ, my husband has way more wives than me, I am affiliated with a cult and last but certainly not least I need you or someone like you to talk me out of my crazy ways and save my soul. I would like to assure you that none of this is true .However it won't do much good considering you already know everything there is to know about me. Even though I know people by name they only seem to know me by my faith. That I don't mind except that the only thing you know are what you have been told by others, read in the paper, heard on the television or learned from some other unreliable source. I make it a point to not critisize other religions. Why? Because I do not practice them. Nor do I study them. It is impossible to truly know everything about any religion that you are not a part of. Believe it or not you really don't know everything about a religion you practice. It is a learning process. So please all you people out there don't make me have to daily defend my beliefs , or hear another ignorant comment about what you think you know. I promise to allow you to believe in what you want. Please grant me that same respect.
