February

The Lord has truly blessed us this month. Our smoke alarm alerted us in the middle of the night that there was smoke in the hall. The smell of it didn't wake us up. We were also lucky that there wasn't a fire (our furnace died and was filling the house with smoke.) I am also thankful this month for Lady and the Tramp and the Wonderpets, without whom I wouldn't be able to get my picky eater to eat spagetti and celery. And today, I am thankful for Aunt Shelby who found the crib toy I was looking for 2nd hand. She packed up the kids and went and bought it for me at a fraction of the new price. Thanks Shelbs for being so kind! Hopefully this will help our little one to fall asleep with less crying.

Seeds of Faith

Today we met with the Bishop of the ward and little Gracie answered all of his questions correctly. She told him about the Temple, and pointed out who Jesus was in the pictures. She also mentioned prayer and then told the Bishop that Jesus watches her while she's sleeping. It was a sweet moment seeing the seeds of her testimony beginning to grow.
