Letter to Mom

Dear Mom,

I am excited for your schooling! I promise you that as you take Spanish, begin to read the Book of Mormon side by side with English, and you will pick it up faster and will understand more. When we trust in the Lord with our "desires", they are changed from just a hope, to a blessed opportunity to share the Gospel with. I have faith that as you press forward with your education, you will receive the blessings in your life you so desperately crave! I look forward to hearing of your successes in the classroom, and the dedication that you always show when you put your mind to a task.

I love you! I cannot wait to talk to you in the next couple weeks. Mother's Day has always been special, and I know that this one will be a spiritual one for you. Always remember the role that women play in our lives, much like we just heard in General Conference. Embrace the love and tasks before you and your burden will be made light as you receive help from an active Father in Heaven. Like Uchtdorf said in the Priesthood Session: "Never live under your privileges!"
Have a wonderful week and give my love to all the kids! Keep the faith and fight the good fight.
