So since President's Day was this week I wanted to write something about it and I read an article that I really liked in the Mormon Times section so here is a bit from that article...."In his book, "Abraham Lincoln, God's Humble Instrument," Ron L. Andersen describes a 14-year-old boy who didn't find any of the existing churches in the mid-1800s to his liking, so he didn't join any of them. He relied instead on the God of his prayers for answers.
He didn't smoke, swear, chew tobacco, drink or despise minorities.
He lost people dear to him, including his mother and two young sons.
He was called "peculiarsome."
He enjoyed a good wrestle, liked playing with children, laughed easily and often.
He believed the Founding Fathers designed the Constitution with divine guidance and that America was founded for a wise purpose, a purpose in which he felt he would play a significant role.
He had a hunger for learning and truth but not a great business head. Instead of amassing wealth, he more often gave his money away to those he felt needed his help."

Also I am concerned about one of my best friends because her father has cancer, and I haven't seen her for 4 months; and my cat is being really noisy right now and she needs to be quiet or she will wake up my mom; and I do get to sleep in happy day!
