I just spent an hour talking to my Mom's parents.
It's nice to be able to call my grandparents and talk. I was writing a list as I was talking to them:
-pray to find the qualities in people I'm dating
-might not be outwardly attracted to someone but will be after I get to know them
-spent last 4 years training to be a nurse so I should enjoy being a nurse
-be patient
-give nursing a year and if not what I wanted I can make a good judgement about what to do next
-ask the Lord to help me make good decisions
-take advantage of opportunities to help other people
-just because it's not in your PB, doesn't mean it won't happen
-find out what I really want to do as far as work
-PB's are not fortune-telling, they only help and give guidance
-to attract those I'm interested in: positiveness, strong in the faith, happiness
-some mother out there who raised a fine young man who's personality will fit mine
-I need to think about medical school and if it will stop me from having the desire of my heart?
-what service can I do now?
-what can I do now: take advantage of dating opportunities, don't date guys who have no intention of ever being a husband or a father, just be myself!, don't settle (a man that I can look up to, who leads the family)
-there is someone out there
-whoever I marry will have to deal that my mom has bipolar schizo-affective disorder--they'll have to accept that and deal with it but there is someone out there who is big enough and worthy of my love to deal with that and give me what I need and I'll love him; my spiritual equal--equally spiritually yoked
-Grandpa Paul told me that I'm going to sell myself as Kelsey Justice: smart, good, spiritual, pretty, intelligent, loves children, no question I will be a good mother, a chosen daughter of God, confident person, great wife and mother, can goof off and be serious if I need to be
-have a positive mental attitude about myself, ask the Lord to help me
-I'm looking for someone who loves me the way I love him
-ask the Lord to give me inspiration with my decisions
-help me see the qualities in someone that I wouldn't have known
-my heart is telling me what I really should do: be a mother and raise a family, in the meantime, be a good nurse and enjoy it
-don't sell myself short, there's a lot of girls that want the qualities I have
-I make my own decisions
It was really nice to talk to them and I feel a lot better. I decided last night that I wanted to talk to my Grandma Carlie but it was really late at night. I even wrote it on my to-do list:
Haha, checked that off!
Today was super rainy and it hailed and was a huge thunderstorm. It was really pretty and to change up my routine, I went and studied out in my car trunk.

I'm glad you called Grandma and Grandpa Jensen. They are very wise and give wonderful advice. I call them all the time for advice. I usually call once a week and was planning on talking to them about you on Saturday morning on my walk. Sunday morning they are in church early, so I usually call Sat. mornings and sometimes other times as well. I feel like they answer so many of my prayers with their advice. I feel like Heavenly Father gave me them as parents because they are so much like our Heavenly parents. I'm glad you realize they are there for you too! I love the things you wrote down and can think about. It will be interesting to see how you feel after fasting on Sunday. We will support whatever you decide to do. Love you Sunshine Girl! Mom
