I have to tell you that I have accomplished the task of memorizing the alphabet backwards. I'm sure most of you are wondering why I would even do such a thing, or why it's even important. Here's the thing...Darwin learned it backwards before he went on his mission, and I've heard him recite it several times with great speed, so I was determined to learn it backwards as well. I started learning it by going over it in my head while laying down trying to go to sleep, and it worked (plus it's much more fun than counting sheep)!! I was reciting it to Darwin last night to prove to him I had learned it backwards, and because I was tired while doing so, I kept accidentally saying "XYZPDQ," which for those who don't know what that abbreviation means: examine your zipper pretty darn quick. He just kept laughing at me, but I really do have the alphabet memorized backwards now :) I can't say it as fast as Darwin can, but at least I can do it!! Yay! If you want proof for yourself, you'll just have to ask me!

DARWIN is on his 12th year of teaching, currently at Springville High School teaching astronomy, geology, environmental science, and physics. He also teaches physics at UVU for a 7 week STEM summer school program for junior high students. He also teaches teenagers in our church ward. He's super busy, but still makes time to be an awesome dad and husband.

Sounds like your brain gets plenty of exercise! Mine could use some of that...
