I just have to share my favorite post so far for 2016 from my daughter Sarah Moore.
President Thomas S. Monson
Sarah is very musical, talented, sweet, polite,
and she is always striving to "Choose The Right"
May she always illuminate and share the light
and may she always Choose The Right
The following story I wrote for my Sarah Louise, when she was little. I've written at least one story for each of my six kids. Sarah has another Christmas story I wrote that I really love. You can find that one on her
blog page.
One day I would love to have my stories I have written published, especially the ones I have written for my MOORE children.

There is a girl
who is so polite
Her name is
Sarah Louise
And because she
wanted to “Choose The Right”
She learned to
say the word “PLEASE”
“Pleased to
meet you, long time no see.”
“Please won’t
you come meet my family.”
“Please meet my
sisters and little brother.”
“Please meet my
father and my mother.”
“Please may I
go out and play?”
“I’m pleased to
see such a lovely day.”
But did you
know there actually was a time
That sweet Sarah
Louise
Felt it was a
most frightful crime
To even say the
word “Please”
Not to you nor
me
Or her own
family
There was just
no way
That word she
would say
Instead she would
make these rude demands
That sounded
more like military commands
“Give me this.”
“Give me that.”
“Now give me a
kiss.”
“And get my
hat.”
“Hand me that
sweater.”
“Pass over that
drink.”
Saying “Please”
would be better.
What do you
think?
Well, this is
when people would start to run
Whenever they
would see Sarah Louise
For she was no
longer any fun
Because she
would never say the word “Please”
Not to you nor
me
Or her own
family
There was just
no way
That word she
would say
Until one
uneventful day
She realized
that no one would even play
With a child
that wouldn’t say “Please.”
Yes, a child
named Sarah Louise.
And ever since
that day
She learned to
be MOORE polite
Because she
wanted others to play
With her, and
wanted to “Choose The Right”
Now it would
seem to me
That Sarah
Louise,
Knew just what
to do.
When she
learned to use “PLEASE”
With everyone
she knew.
“Please would
you open the door?”
And “please
will you give me more
Of that there
milk in the jug?”
“Now please may
I have a hug?”
So, do you
think Sarah Louise
Is ever so
polite?
And all because
she learned to say “Please”
And wanted to Choose The Right
Sincerely written by me, Carol Louise with the last name of MOORE.
