This Is Me!

Hello! My name is Marissa! I am a Freshman at Brigham Young University in Idaho. I have entered the field of Elementary Education and am so excited to one day work with young students! The most important thing in my life that has had the most influence on me is my religion! I love my Father in Heaven and my brother, Jesus Christ. I also love my family here on earth! I am the youngest of four and I have two loving parents! I believe that the family is of God and it truly is the biggest blessing in my life. I plan to one day raise a family of my own. As I participate in my college's Family Relations course, I will blog of different lessons and principles as I become more educated on them. This past week we have learned of the trends we see in American families today. I have recognized the true importance of spending quality time with family. Whether we have it or not- taking time out of each week and each day to strengthen our family ties is absolutely necessary to have and maintain a truly loving and safe home environment!
