I am dyslexic, which means it’s hard for me to learn some things at school like reading and writing. I have a tutor who helps me. I pray to Heavenly Father for help and comfort when it is hard for me.

My family is in the process of adopting my little brother. We will go the temple to be sealed as a family for all eternity once his paperwork is finished. I’m grateful for the temple because it means he will be my brother forever!
