Mother’s
day
Many
things happened that are not pictured. Of course.
Yesterday
the boys took me shopping and I got some pants socks and new sunglasses. I also
got a yummy tinted lip balm from Sephora. Thank you to Mitchell also for making
me a delicious ham and potatoes dinner with extra gravy.
I
took a bath with some bath salts I made a jar for my mom and myself for mother’s day
I also watched a documentary on the Alps…
Mother’s
day the boys made me breakfast and let me sleep in, -thank you my Mr.! – Also
they helped me have a wonderful morning complete with handmade cards pretty
jewelry and flowers.
Church
was just wonderful. Eli sang in sacrament meeting along with the other little
children and I was so overwhelmed- he is growing so fast-. This quote was given
in a talk AND was on the ward bulletin "This ability and willingness
properly to rear children, the gift to love, and eagerness, yes, longing to
express it in soul development, make motherhood the noblest office or calling
in the world. She who can paint a masterpiece or write a book that will
influence millions deserves the admiration and the plaudits of mankind; but she
who rears successfully a family of healthy, beautiful sons and daughters, whose
influence will be felt through generations to come, . . . deserves the highest
honor that man can give, and the choicest blessings of God." -David O. McKay
also
later in the day my sister gave a wonderful lesson about the book of Mormon,
this quote stood out to me "“I feel certain that if, in our homes, parents
will read from the Book of Mormon prayerfully and regularly, both by themselves
and with their children, the spirit of that great book will come to permeate
our homes and all who dwell therein. The spirit of reverence will increase;
mutual respect and consideration for each other will grow. The spirit of
contention will depart. Parents will counsel their children in greater love and
wisdom. Children will be more responsive and submissive to the counsel of their
parents. Righteousness will increase. Faith, hope, and charity—the pure love of
Christ—will abound in our homes and lives, bringing in their wake peace, joy,
and happiness” (Ensign, May 1980, p. 67).
Wonderful
quotes for me to reflection on today, Mothers day.
After
church we enjoyed a delicious dinner at my parents- ham and potatoes (no
really) before getting to talk to Michael on his mission!
We
had a great day!
