WORK!

Work is a very important principle that we need to make sure we are teaching our kids.

I have it to be very interesting just how much work can teach a child.  One of the things that I have learned growing up about the importance of work is the wise use of it as well.  When I made money, I learned that I need to save that money so that I can buy something that I want or need.  It also helped me to save for my mission.  Work has taught me many values that I think that I would not have learned if I would not have had a job when I was younger.  It taught me to never give up, dependability, honesty, and many other values.  One of the things that we learned in class was just how important it is that we pay our tithing first, before we do anything else with our paycheck.  I think that this principle is very inspired.  When we pay our tithing it is basically our fire insurance.  It will help us when we have to go through hard times.  It is giving back to the lord what is already his.  My parents taught me this very important principle and I am very grateful that they did.
