It is almost spring

This was the best of the billion pictures that we took on Easter. Note to self for next year take the pictures BEFORE church.

That is the question that Tori asks me EVERYDAY. She was quite disappointed when it was snowing on Monday. As far as she is concerned we had Easter and now it is spring. We are so excited that Jared's semester is almost over...only one more semester and then he will graduate! We are looking forward to spending some quality family time this spring and summer. Last year I was so pregnant and dreaded the heat and just about everything else associated with summer last year.

I love Spring! It is a great opportunity to re-evalaute life and make changes. We just had our General Conference last weekend. It is always so wonderful to hear from the Lord's prophet. We are so thankful that we have a prophet today who communicates with God. Wouldn't the world be so much more frightening without the knowledge that we have a Heavenly Father who knows and loves us individually? As I reflect on the talks given at General Conference they each were so wonderful and what I needed. Check out Elder Ballards talk on Motherhood. I was ready to give up, and then I heard that talk and I have had a much better attitude and conviction to be a better mother. They will be little only once, and this too shall pass. All mother's will appreciate this talk member and non-member alike.
