Here's a goal I'm starting on today. My subject: Elizabeth.
Make your home life better. For two weeks make a special effort to strengthen your relationship with a family member by showing love through your actions. Refrain from judging, criticizing, or speaking unkindly, and watch for positive qualities in that family member. Write notes of encouragement, pray for this family member, find ways to be helpful, and verbally express your love. Share your experiences and the divine qualities you’ve discovered with that family member or with a parent or leader.If I tell the entire world, then I am accountable to do it. Lizzy is the obvious choice because she is four years old, has her own opinions, and is the daughter of an impatient pregnant me. If you've had an opinionated 4-year old and if you've met me, it shouldn't be hard to imagine why this needs some high-profile accountability.

Funny ... I did that one about my six year old why-do-it-myself-if-someone-else-will-and-if-I-don't-like-what-you-say-I'll-challenge-any-girl-in-the-dramatic-fit-department. I kept a running list of good things I observed about him everyday. I will admit, some days it was hard. I was post-partum though, not pg. Good luck!
Good luck with your goal- I think you will do wonderful! Congrats on being pregnant! That is exciting!
I need to grab a copy of PP to work on goals just like that one. Can you work on it if you're in the Nursery and not in Young Womens?
Good luck to you and Lizzie.
One of the things I love about the changes they made to Personal Progress since we were there: YES. Anybody can work on it. Nursery leaders, too. One of the counselors in our Stake Presidency is working on his PP with his daughters.
