With the pool all filled up we can finally swim after all those weeks of rain! It's been fun to have family over and to have some of the youngin's go swimming with us.

Being a primary teacher over the last few weeks has had its ups and downs. Each child (I'm teaching the youngest kids in Primary with another Sister, Sister Parker) has their own personality and input and output. Generally, though, I enjoy working with them, and I look forward to gaining more experience with children. They're cute, funny, quirky, and it can be surprising how much they already know about the Gospel at such a young age.

As writing goes, I'm still working on part 2 of Founders, and I feel pretty confident in getting it completed. I definitely don't want to give it up after coming so far - I've been working on the project as a whole for over a year now!

I've also started on a side project, known right now as "Birth of Light", which is where I have two stories I'm going to clean up and publish as one book. One is a story in and by itself called "Cry of the Lupogryph", and the other is a spinoff from the Kajt Chronicles called "Linnaie's Mask". The latter I actually had posted on Deviantart for a while before I took it off.

My brother Will is enjoying himself immensely in Taiwan. He just transferred to another area, and he has a few people who are interested in the Gospel. It's wonderful, and I'm so happy for him. Before I know it he'll be back.

Bryce and April got married on Thursday, and they're very happy together ^^ I'm glad to have another sister - now it's just Will and me that need to get married mwahahaha.
