Happy Valentines!

I know it's late but I wanted to wish everyone a Happy Valentine's Day. It's my favorite holiday because of the decorations and candy. I don't really care what happens on that day - you know, dinner, movie, whatever, I just like the pink and red hearts leading up to the day. So really it's my favorite holiday but I don't care if we celebrate it in the traditional way.

My b-day was on the 10th and my family went to the Draper Temple Openhouse. It was such an awesome experience!!!! I loved being able to share the temple with my kids. They were so impressed by the plastic covering the floor! I can't say anything, I remember the booties from the Jordan River Temple openhouse! They were so quiet and respectful and when we went into the celestial room they were so impressed by the revrence and beauty. I am so glad the church opens the temple before it is dedicated for all to see. I loved feeling the spirit with my children.

I have been reading alot about the divine role of women and how important our jobs are. Nuturing children, giving them both wings to fly and roots to grow.

I love my little family and I am very blessed to have each of my children. They each have their own set of abilities and talents. I hope I can do a good job raising them. I had a girls camp meeting and I am so excited to go but I have to leave my children for a week! I've never done that before, so in that respect I am nervous. Maybe it will be needed by the middle of summer. I don't know because I've never had the summer off before.

Well, that's pretty much all that's been going on. I just wanted to post before it got to be too long.
