Family Gifts

I've been thinking about the unique qualities and abilities of our individual family members. It strikes me that even though we're all from the same family, our gifts and talents are really quite diverse. I thought I would post some of the primary characteristics I see in each family member (in-laws too!). These are just a few specific ones, you are all kind, wonderful people and I love you!

Dad- Resilience, leadership, and loyalty- to his family, the gospel, his job, and scouts.

Mom- Intelligence, faith, and love for family- mom loves family gatherings where we just sit around and talk!

Aaron- Logic, responsibility, hard worker, family leader, fun brother, helps the family try new things

Katy- Enthusiasm for life, appreciation of beauty and diversity, generosity

Marie- Nurturing, deep sympathy, drive for excellence, compassion

Adam- Innovative, love for learning, hard worker

Danny- Caring, affectionate, willing to serve, great with his hands

Jenny- Reasoning and logic--great advice and amazing at games, spotting patterns, putting things together, etc. Loving mother, sister.

Nathan- Politeness and diplomacy, spontaneity, balancing fun with work

Celeste- Deep feeling, loyalty to friends, gift of example, hard work

Michelle- Passion, dedication, sense of justice, ambition, sensitivity and gentleness

Okay, I changed the template. This one is way cuter. Very girly, though. Sorry, Joel! Next month I'll choose the All-Star Sports one. Maybe. :)
