Oh goodness, this blog is going to be boring with all my talking! My sweet mother took baby Teags tonight so that Jacob and I can go hiking with friends tomorrow for Memorial Day. And my lovely sista and her hubs are going to take Easton swimming with them and to their Berkabile bbq. Best family ever. I really love that I was born into my awesome family. I just love them all so much!
Today is the last day of finding things I like about myself - woo hoo! I'm tired of all this bragging :). But something I've always liked about myself is that I have a strong testimony of the gospel and firm faith in Jesus Christ (these things I can attribute to my parents). Since I joined the church I have striven to live the teachings to the best of my ability, and my relationship with the Lord is of the utmost importance to me. I've never been one to take the commandments lightly, to let things slide, and I'm grateful that I have been blessed with the desire to live a good, honest, and virtuous life. I'm not perfect at all, not saying that! But I know what's important. And I really really try!

I just want to let you know that I love reading all your posts. Really I do, I don't think they are boring and they make me think about things. I love that you are writing something you like about yourself everyday, you really should just keep that going. I am amazed at how much choosing to think a certain way can eventually make you believe it. You are such an awesome person Rachel, and you have been inspiring to watch as you have been so strong through such a hard time of life and came out of it happier and better off. It is a testimate that we don't know what is in store for us but we just have to stay strong through the hard times and hope for better and eventually they come around. You will master anything you set your mind to, I have already seen you do it. Hang in there about your feelings of inadequacy with your body. Everyone of us do that. There is so much about my looks and my body I hate and it is a fight all the time to stay positive about it and keep the perspective that it doesn't matter. It is a big way satan gets us feeling down and depressed and we just have to not give him that pleasure. Right? It seems like you found one amazing husband who loves you for you, hold on to that. Now you just have to love you for you too.
(sorry that turned out to be so dang long!) Love ya Rachel!
