O.K. I'm going to gloat here. A couple weeks ago, we spent some time with a family friend. I asked him to listen as I read the Book of Mormon in Spanish and correct my pronunciation. He only had 2, count them 2, corrections in the whole chapter. He said my pronunciation was perfect, especially for a non-native. I guess it helps that I was surrounded with Spanish, growing up in Phoenix. I'm smiling here!
Now I just have to work on my ability to converse quickly enough to hold a conversation of meaning. We can't have it all--at least not all at once. Maybe I can get serious with Mandarin again.

Reading the scriptures and keeping this journal are my delight. I do not keep an online journal to preach to anyone but myself. I like this format, because I can add pictures and correct my writing easier. If you enjoy reading it, I am happy. If you feel offended, please, realize it is not my intention to offend but to teach myself. No negative comments will not be published.
