Tomorrow is Monday, Duh



Yes, today i am grateful for Conference. I love the opportunity to spend all day Sunday with my husband. I love to hear messages from our leaders, and I enjoy getting different things out of the talks, than other people do. I love to have conversations with people about what stuck out to them. I think it is interesting, last time, it seemed geared towards, less active and inactive members. this go around, it was definitely geared towards the active members. We need to get our financial and spiritual houses in order, then have Faith. I loved what Neil Anderson said on Saturday morning about "faith is not only a feeling, it is an action" And "fear and faith cannot exist together".

And i decided for my DS tidbit, I wanted to take a topic someone else posted. Lily's mom from http//lilyslifeisgreat.blogspot.com/2008/10/get-it-down-day-4.html posted the things she wanted for her daughter. Here is mine.

What i hope for 4 of 5. I want her to read. I want her to sign. I want her to live on her own. I want her to go on a mission. I need her to be happy. Which means than none of these things are going to happen necessarily. I don't care if she dates. I don't care if she marries. I just need her to be happy.And although I don't understand fully, her job here on this earth, I would love for her to be able to attend the Temple . I would love to go on a mission with me and her dad. If she is not independent, that is. I am not burdened with the possibility that she may live at home for the rest of her, or my life. I need her to have friends that accept her, and love her. I need her brothers and sisters to love her and understand her. I need parents to teach their children that she is different, and not in a bad way. That there is nothing wrong with her. I need her to feel loved.

She is loved completely for who she is and that is one of the main reasons why we love her so. She is nothing but special to each and everyone of us and I know for myself and my family, she has taught us so much already. (as "yuppy" as that is going to sound)
