When one reaches this age, (we won't say what it is) they are really learning to be wise from all the things they have experienced. It's not at all like when we are teens and think we know so much. She really has had the challenge of taking the bull by the horns and doing the best she can. This was especially accomplished when moving three thousand miles from home and family. Great for growth, not so great for using grandma as a sitter. Opportunity knocks when we take it and why not.
Alicia is an on-the-ball mother spending time reading and teaching her children many skills. She tries many creative projects with them, encouraging each to think on their own. Inviting friends and missionaries over for an evening of food and fun is also common for her.
At a young age she loved challenges wanting to begin the Science, Art or Writing project the day it was assigned. Who does that! High achievers do. How honored we are to be a part of this great gal's life, then and now. Happy Birthday and may it be a wonderful year full of joy and great days.
