A Spiritual journey

We had such a wonderful lesson today on personal revelation. I stopped and tried to think about the many times that the spirit has touched my life by testifying a truth to me. I also realized that I usually do not write these sweet experiences down, so I am going to write one now and share:) We had a lesson not too long ago about the Gifts of the Spirit and we talked about how we can pray for these gifts. Well I had never really thought about praying for them before so I did. Well we recently had some boundary changes in our ward and we received quite a few member from another ward, which was a hard change for them. I really prayed that I would be able to help them feel loved and welcome in our ward. My answer came as the new families came and introduced themselves and I found that I was remembering everything about them after the first time meeting them. I had faces memorized in my mind, names, jobs, anything that they told me. This to me was a gift, because on my own I have a hard time remembering names let alone any of the other things. I know that this was a blessing to those that joined our ward because they felt like someone knew them and that they belong. Well I usually don't write a lot on our blog--but I might start writing more:) I guess I should add pictures of my cuties too:)

check out those eyes:)


This is Rylee with Madison Heintz. Today Cortney and Jason took Rlyee on a walk and Rylee asked them the big question--"how did baby Madison come out of your tummy?" Then later on we were looking at pictures and when we got to one in which I was pregnant with Gavin I asked her who was in my tummy and she responded "baby Madison." I have come to realize that she has no memory of me being pregnant with Gavin, to her he has just always been here:)
