We Can Light The World In So Many Ways

During Fast and Testimony meeting yesterday, I was especially thankful for one testimony that was born. It was a reminder that the Light The World project is simply suggestions. It is simply a way to remind ourselves to show love to others. It isn't about doing a major project every day, or even on one day. It isn't about spending money. It's about feeling the Spirit and sharing the Spirit.

Friday, the boys and I volunteered to watch the babies so that Brandon and Carrie could go on a date. Win win!!! Saturday, we gave out hot chocolate packets to two neighbors. Sunday, we visited with Papa and Grandma. Papa just had major surgery and is at home recovering slowly. Then we drove to Orem, had dinner and played poker before watching the Christmas Devotional.

It isn't about stressing out about what we are going to do every day. Randy reminded us at dinner that we ought to be lighting the world throughout the year, not just at Christmas and that hopefully we can start good habits this month that will carry throughout the year.

Two-Timing

Braxton took me to Cold Stone last night. Jackson was working. It's pretty much a perfect set up for this mama!

I ate ice cream... and all of the Rocky Mountain Chocolate free samples that were on the counter (It's been a rough week!!!!). Braxton showed me funny videos. We waited for Jackson to get off. Then, off we went. I sat in the back seat snorting while the two of them made me laugh like crazy!

Blessed, blessed mama.
