Out of town again . . . Here is the next part of our summer: I recently celebrated my birthday. My sweet sister in law knew my husband would be busy so she invited us over for dinner. Instead of a card we went around in a circle and everyone said something they liked about me. Maddie said she liked that I let her watch TV when the kids are at school. Derek said that I am the most compassionate person he knows. Amber said that she enjoyed babysitting for us especially when I would drive her home and she would get to talk to her aunt. Angela said that she knows I am a woman of faith. That she knows how difficult things can be with her husband's calling and she has 3 older children and I am doing it with 5 young children. It was nice to see that my influence is for good. It was a good reminder that all I do does not go unnoticed. Book of Mormon, Alma 58:10 ...
I have been given the gift of 5 beautiful children and a wonderful loving husband. I know that my Heavenly Father loves me. I am so grateful to Him for these gifts and this knowledge. In this blog I will express my feelings of life as a mother and wife as well as what I learn from my Heavenly Father through studying His words through scriptures and modern prophets.
