Personal History

Maysen had a Personal History night for Young Womens. It was a pretty fun night. Each girl decorated a table to show a little bit about who they are. Maysen's table is below.
Maysen had her My Twinn doll. Her blankets from Grandma Parry. Heart (her dog she sleeps with every night) from Grandma Honey. Pottery. Family scrapbooks. Portuguese Book of Mormon (she reads that with her dad every night). 11 Birthdays (to signify she loves to read). The green folder is one of the stories she has written - her dream is to be an author one day. Last she has her personal progress book.

I told a story about Maysen when she was three. We were planning on going on a Disney Cruise. About two or three months before the trip, Maysen insisted that Mickey Mouse had come to our door and asked her to watch Pluto for him. Maysen then kept her hand in a fist until our trip. For months. Every night before bed she would tie Pluto up. When we finally saw Mickey Mouse, she ran up to him, handed him her invisible leash and said, "Here's Pluto, I took good care of him." I wonder where she gets her imagination from? Oh right, her dad. When she was little she use to tell me that I had no imagination. She was right.
