Is it your dream or is it pride?
I used to think that
I wanted to write a book or I wanted to have a widely read blog. I thought that
was my dream. But what I've realized over time is that that "dream"
was a manifestation of my own pride. I wanted to be well-liked and considered
"right" or smart. I feel called to blog, so I thought, "This
will help me accomplish my dream! The Lord is helping me realize this 'dream'
of mine."
Saying Yes to Help
Life is hard. Do you
feel that way? I'd have to say it took me becoming a mother to really
understand how much I could use and needed help from others. In our society,
though, people who are strong, people who can do it all by themselves, people
who don't "need" anyone else are celebrated and praised.

Kid Spacing
The spacing between kids is something I think about a lot and I wanted my thoughts recorded here.

So grateful
It's a divine way to
learn gratitude when you experience the loss of something. After this
pregnancy, I find I am so grateful for the things I can once again do that I
couldn't do while I was pregnant.

Like coming home
There's so much
peace and clarity that comes with General Conference. It feels like coming
home. People speak softly and with tenderness. They talk about the best in
people, and the hope available in Jesus Christ. Problems I have in parenting sometimes seem insurmountable when I look at them through the answers available from worldly sources. But during conference, I receive sudden insights while
people are talking, providing solutions to my problems, or hear things that
will help me with the different trials I am facing. Somehow, after conference it feels like everything is going to be ok. It feels like love there.
It feels like coming home.
