Thought for the Day


"Oh, it is wonderful to know that our Heavenly Father loves us - even with all our flaws! His love is such that even should we give up on ourselves, He never will. We see ourselves in terms of yesterday and today. Our Heavenly Father sees us in terms of forever. Although we might settle for less, Heavenly Father won't, for He sees us as the glorious beings we are capable of becoming."

- Elder Joseph B. Wirthlin

Spring Break

So far Spring Break has been a Pain in the Neck - and it's only the 2nd day so far! Yesterday we spent a bit of time taking the van in for repairs. The AC has gone out and here in Phoenix we can NOT do without it once summer comes (or even Spring)! :)

The kids have been restless. We haven't been able to do anything without the van. Hopefully we'll be able to pick it up today and have some fun before the week is all over.

I AM excited because one of my old mission companions is coming to Phx this week. We'll get a chance to hang out and reminesce (is that how you spell it?). I'm not sure what we'll do, but it'll be good to see her.

We are also going to try to go to the Easter Pagent at the temple. It's always such a wonderful thing. I think it's exactly what our little family needs right now. To see a little more of what Easter is really about. You know how it is - you try to teach them, and you have to go over it all again and again and again. I feel as if the kids have been a little focused on the wrong aspects of Easter. I have to admit, I have been too. If anyone has any other ideas on how to creatively bring the Easter Spirit into our home right now, feel free to let me know. :)

Well, I really need to go and do my exercises. I'm trying to follow my sisters' example and exercise 5 days a week. Jen is actually working out 6 days a week though. I can't handle THAT much work! :) LOL
