A Favorite Quotation

"Mothers who know do less. They permit less of what will not bear good
fruit eternally. They allow less media in their homes, less
distraction, less activity that draws their children away from their
home. Mothers who know are willing to live on less and consume less of
the world’s goods in order to spend more time with their children—more
time eating together, more time working together, more time

reading together, more time talking, laughing, singing, and exemplifying.
These mothers choose carefully and do not try to choose it all. Their
goal is to prepare a rising generation of children who will take the
gospel of Jesus Christ into the entire world. Their goal is to prepare
future fathers and mothers who will be builders of the Lord’s kingdom
for the next 50 years. That is influence; that is power."

Service

I'm so grateful for opportunities to serve and for a Relief Society president who felt inspired to ask me to do something nice for somebody else. "When ye are in the service of your fellow being ye are only in the service of your God." -Mosiah 2:17

Apple Picking

We went apple picking with Mimi and Papa. We love going fruit picking any time we can.
