For the past year I have been serving in the Young Women (my church calling) and teaching every other week. I love teaching and do not get nervous but I do have troubles with procrastinating and wishes I had been better prepared with my lesson.
Not this week what a perfect mothers day gift to teach a lesson on keeping journals! I have kept a journal since I was 8. The lesson also included ways you can share your personal story so I also got to share many of my scrapbooks. Here is a list of journaling questions I passed out to the girls to work on and some of these I need to answer myself.
