Happy Birthday!

To my sweet "little" sister and wise father. Justin had a birthday too, but we were too far away to celebrate with him. I love our families!

Bath night



Two nights a week are bath nights. I can't handle more than that. For 5 years bath night has been good, clean fun - until tonight.

"Mom! William pooped in the bathtub!"

Nice.

I'm so glad Clayton was home (and in a good mood).

But because this is an uplifting blog, here are some of my favorite quotes from the last General Conference.

"There is no area of parental action that is more needful of heavenly guidance or more likely ro receive it than the decisions of parents in raising their children and governing their families. This is the work of eternity."
-Elder Dallin H. Oaks

"Your mind is in charge; your body is the instument of your mind."
-President Boyd K. Packer

"It is not enough to want to make the effort and to say we'll make the effort. It's in the doing, not just the thinking, that we accomplish our goals. if we constantly put our goals off, we will never see them fulfilled."
- President Thomas S. Monson (quoted by President Uchtdorf)
