Brielle

Brielle is a sweet angel. She is in Kindergarten all day and loves her teacher, but not school. She says it's too much work even though she does really well at it.

Last Sunday she had the sweetest answer in Primary. The teacher wanted the children to finish the phrase, "I am grateful for my Savior because..." Most of the other children said, "because He helps me." Then she choose Brielle and she said, "because He makes my mistakes not bad." I was surprised and touched. We have talked a lot about mistakes and how it's okay to make a mistake and that Jesus can take our mistakes away. She has lots of issues about being perfect and has a hard time dealing with making a mistake. I thought the answer was such a sweet protrayal of a five year old's understanding of the atonement.
