I received a message today from Edens primary teacher while we were out playing in the fall leaves. She wanted to know five of Eden's talents for their primary lesson tomorrow. I wrote them down and I wanted to record them here for her to read later on.
Eden, you are very brave. You try new things with excitement and you were always thrilled to learn and experience something new.
You are kind and thoughtful. You can see others needs and you try to help them. When someone is sad you try to cheer them up, when I need help you are ready to cook, clean, or help a little brother sister.
You are so good at making us all laugh and have fun. Your laugh makes my day. And the twinkle in your eye, your little dimple by your mouth, and your one raised eyebrow can bring a smile to anyone's face.
You are obedient. You follow the rules and you try to help others follow the rules as well. This will be a great strength to you as you get older and are faced with harder situations and harder temptations. Others will need your example of obedience in order to receive the happiness that comes from obeying the commandments of God.
You are full of faith, Eden. You understand the Scriptures and the gospel principles and you try to live them 100% once you have learned them. An example of this is when we talked about praying to have missionary experiences and you wanted to pray for your friend Bella to come to church. There wasn't a day that you forgot to pray for her to come to church and your own prayers. Once you know something is the will of God you do it wholeheartedly.
What a privilege it is to be your mother, sweet angel of mine. Thank you for all that you teach me and all the joy you bring us every day.
