YW Inspirational Thought

So I was recently called to be a Beehive advisor in my ward, in Young Women's... so I'd be advising/teaching 12-13 year olds. Way stoked! I loved being in Young Women's as a teenager, and I've always wanted to be involved in that when I was married...

Wish granted!

Awesome, except I forgot one big thing - I'd be teaching on a regular, weekly basis. Gah! I really don't like being the center of attention, so this has been a growing and learning experience for me. 

So my lesson this Sunday is on "How Do the Things I Say Affect Me and Those Around Me?" 

Thinking about this and reading the material I somehow was mentally drawn to a quote my friend Sheridan had on her bathroom mirror...

"Objects in mirror may be more beautiful than they appear." 

Such a cute thing to see in the morning as you're scrambling to get ready and, if you're anything like me, end up getting frustrated that something doesn't look right, you don't feel pretty enough in some way, or your hair just absolutely hates you that morning. 

So since all of my little girlies are just barely starting the school year out again, I figure they could do with a little boost. 

I went to Michael's & got these:

 
I bought 3 packs of 5 each mirrors because I have 14 girls. 


And wrote with the fine pointed sharpie that cute quote. 

(It was extremely hard to take a picture of the writing!)


Then I cut 1 inch sections from the magnet strip. 


And placed it adhesive side down onto the top of the back of the mirror. 

And done! My quick little give-away inspirational thought was done in about 20 minutes, cost me $9 for the supplies. 

Now all I have to do is prepare the lesson... Or procrastinate with other projects instead.  :P
