* Reading with the boys after Miss M and Colester went to bed. Sitting out in the living room, being enthralled every bit as much as they were in the story we were reading. Fighting within myself...it's late they need to get to bed....but it's so fun to read, maybe just a few more pages...or chapters.....
Hoping that they will love reading as much as I do. To find it as much as an escape and calmer as I do.
*Miss M still isn't up to her normal self after having Influenza B. So she has been a bit more cranky and whiny. However, for some reason, when she cried for me to come and see her while she was finishing her bath my heart was lifted. She pitifully told me she just wanted to be with me. It made my heart feel light instead of irritated. She loves me. And I love her.
*Working with Klint to put a mirror up in Cole's room. I love that man. Then talking with him after all the kids were asleep and he came home from a meeting. Talking about faith, truly submitting to the will of the Lord--not just enduring until it's over--but submitting. Brought insight and peace to my soul. Brought happiness and more love for that handsome husbando. I am so incredibly blest, not only to get to spend my life with him, but to share such personal, deep feelings and stirrings with him. That together we get to travel and learn and grow through the challenges and trials.
*Studying my scriptures and being reminded of lessons and how to apply those ancient writings to my everyday life. Amazing. I don't even know how many times I have read the Book of Mormon, and still it never ceases to amaze me how each day of study can bring new discoveries, fresh answers to prayers and much needed spiritual reminders. The Lord is real and so good.
