We enjoyed a relaxing General Conference weekend. It worked out nicely that the sessions were during Tanner's naps and Ethan was good to listen and play quietly. I enjoy hearing inspiring messages from our Prophet and the Apostles. It always gives me a new desire to be a better wife, mother, daughter and friend.
This week I have been thinking a lot about my Grandma Jack. She was an amazing woman! She was so faithful and such an uplifting person, always teaching her grandchildren life lessons when the opportunity presented itself; she was thoughtful, kind, loving, never spoke a mean word, spiritual, amazing cook, and really just an all-around wonderful woman. One thing that really amazes me is the fact that she had a third child after she had polio. I don't know how you would chase after a baby while watching over two other children all while in a wheelchair. Amazing! That really goes to show you nothing slowed her down. My dad and I were talking about her the other night and we both agreed we don't know anyone quite like her. She was a spiritual giant. I hope to be half the woman she was some day.
This week Jared is working the evening shift (4pm-12am). It's nice to have him home in the day but I really prefer having him home at night. Before Jared went to work we went to the park for a little bit. The weather has been going back and forth from hot to cool but today is a warmer day. Ethan and I played trains on the slide - he was the engineer and I was the caboose. I love my little family and the blessing I have to stay home to raise my children. I am truly blessed!
