It is 4:00 in the morning today but it is quite. Michael keeps making noises and I am hoping that he doesn't wake up. Many times I get up early to read and study because I know I won't be interrupted. But I usually go back to bed so that I won't be grumpy by the time everyone else is awake.
Yesterday was a good day. I felt the hand of Heavenly Father as I straightened the house with my kids and then got ready for Church. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (click here to find out more.)
In Testimony Meeting (a meeting we attend once a month to share our testimony of our Savior) a woman got up and shared her feelings of the Savior. She talked about how no one is perfect in this life then said, "Well, I think Lexia is almost perfect." I had Michael on my lap and was not paying much attention so when I heard my name I was not sure what had been said. I am far from perfect but I appreciate the kindness of her words. I feel that I need to accept compliments more often. That my Heavenly Father is trying to build me up and help me become the woman that He wants me to be. But if I am continually rejecting those compliments out of "humility" that in fact I am being deceived by the adversary and not allowing my Heavenly Father's light to build my soul.
So Michael did wake up. We watched this video together. When the Savior handed the baby back to the parents Michael started clapping. I do have to wonder what he is thinking.
I hope that I can love my children the way that the Savior wants me to. I am grateful for the times that He reminds me that I do love my children and for the times that I get to enjoy their spirit and see them through His eyes.
