The Best Quote Ever!

Last night we had our Relief Society Christmas dinner. They had little quotes by each plate and I think that mine was destined to be mine. It is AMAZING and how I feel about Christmas to a "T". :) I thought you all might enjoy it around this holiday time.

"Let it be a time that lights the eyes of children and puts laughter on their lips. Let it be a time of lifting the lives of those who live in loneliness, let it be a time for calling our families together for feeling closest to those who are near to us and closeness also to those who are absent. Let it be a time of prayers for peace, for the preservation of free principles and for the protection of those far from us. Let it be a time of forgetting self and finding time for others. Let it be a time for discarding the meaningless and stressing the true values. Let it be a time of peace because we have found peace in His teachings. Most of all let it be a time to remember the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ, that we may share in the song of angels, the gladness of the shepherds, and the worship of the wise men."
President Thomas S. Monson

hey there, you probably don't remember me but I took care of Brinley like 2 years ago when she was itty bitty. I re-came upon your blog recently and just wanted to let you know (which I know you already do) how beautiful she is and I can't believe how big she is! (It makes me feel old!) congrats on your new lil one and good luck with everything :-)
