I came across this quote today and I thought it was perfect. A perfect reminder of life and all it has to offer... meaning the good and bad.
"To you young women with small children, yours is a tremendous challenge. So often there is not enough money. You must scrimp and save. You must be wise and careful in your expenditures. You must be strong and bold and brave and march forward with gladness in your eye and love in your heart. How blessed you are, my dear young mothers. You have children who will be yours forever. I hope that you have been sealed in the house of the Lord and that your family will be an everlasting family in the kingdom of our Father.
May you be given strength to carry your heavy load, to meet every obligation, to walk side by side with a good and faithful and caring man, and together with him rear and nurture and bring up your children in righteousness and truth. Nothing else you will ever own, no worldly thing you will ever acquire will be worth so much as the love of your children. God bless you, my dear, dear young mothers."

Love that! Thanks for sharing that Sadie. It's so true. Sometimes it's easy to get caught up in the day to day tasks and take these sweet spirits for granted. Love the picture of Thomas. So cute!
