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

One of my Joys!

I love all of my children IMMENSLY!!! I want that understood right from the start. But sometimes one of my children does exactly what I need at that moment! Let me explain.
I have been having some health issues lately. Not a big deal, but I haven't felt well. I have been told that I need to take it easy (no, I'm NOT pregnant!!!). Well, this is not an easy task when you have a house to run with a Hubby and 4 kids. They all help out and are doing what they can to make things easier for me. :) But today I looked at my littlest little and smiled. She has been such a joy to me! Livvy is so EASY!!! She is so content to just be with me in the kitchen playing with magnetic animals and talking (always talking) while I load the dishwasher and clean things up.
So I decided to share a little of my joy with you too! This is mostly for Grandma's and Grandpa's. :)

Sorry about not really getting her face in the camera angle. In order to do this without her knowing that I was taping her, I had to just set the camera on the counter. Oh, and sorry that it happened to be on the counter right above the dishwasher! :)

I love her little voice. That puts a smile on this aunt's face. Good to see that you're doing dishes too. Way to go.
