After my "time out" the previous evening we watched a movie entitled Mom's Night Out, produced by the same people as Courageous, and War Room. The movie was delightful. It made me laugh so hard, touched my heart to it's core, helped me ponder and realize some of what my perfectionism is, helped me feel loved. I felt like the writers of this movie reached into my brain and my life and portrayed it on the screen. It was truly delightful.
The following scene was the most poignant in the movie. I sat there with tears streaming down my face as I realized that the reason I had had such a bad night was being discussed and a new way of thinking given. I highly recommend this movie to all mother's out there!!

As I listened to his words I was reminded of the words I was told in the temple, that I am enough! I was reminded that my Father in Heaven is not expecting me to be like the other mothers I think my kids need but to be me, that He gave them to me knowing my weaknesses and that they would be able to make it with my weaknesses because my strengths is what they need. That if my children really needed something I do not have they would not have been born to me. I was reminded that I am enough.
