To School!



Everything is hustle bustle it seems for those getting children off to school.  Today I heard from my youngest DIL, who is also the Mother of our youngest grandchild, and married to our youngest son.  Mo.  Mo is simply adorable and has her own special spot in my heart.  You would love her!  This was not an easy day for her as her youngest child, Sullivan, was heading off to kindergarten.  Some people aren't bothered by that first day of school but for others it's tough.  Sullivan wanted to do everything on his own with no help and even wanted to ride the bus alone!  That independence and confidence will be a future strength to him but today a bit of MommyNeed would have been nice!  Both survived!!

Our Ward is filled with outstanding Mother's.  Lots of young Mothers.  devoted to teaching and training their children to CTR.  They are dedicated, energy filled, and ever on call.  Some have tremendous challenges with their family make-up but they are amazing in how they handle things.  I'm in awe of their steadfastness and endurance.  They are ever trying to strengthen their charges. They "find nobility in motherhood and joy in womanhood".

Here is a site that Tamera shared with me.  You can find the details of current movies as far as what is objectionable etc.  It's very specific and a great help.  Thanks, Tamera!

a good thought......

A family is more than a group of people under one roof.
Families work because all members give and give in.
They look out for each other, and they serve each other's needs.
Being a good mother means being a good servant.
Just remember, there's a difference between a servant and a slave.
