Sometimes I forget how lucky I am to have such amazing family and friends. After watching conference today it really hit me .... how blessed I am to have the knowledge that life is precious. The people in my life are precious. I am grateful to be the wife of a handsome, humble, and patient husband. I am grateful to be the daughter of two of the most amazing parents in the world. I am grateful for all of my siblings and for each unique relationship that I have with each of them.I am grateful to be the aunt of 6 sweet nieces and nephews - Emmerson, Landon, Carson, Austin, Brady, and Coleman. They are such examples to me, I love each and every one of them!
I loved the talk from Jean Stevens the 2nd counselor of the Primary Presidency. She talked about the innocence of children and how we can learn so much from them. I was just recently called to be in the primary presidency and I have already learned so much for those sweet lottles. There is a little boy in primary maybe 5 or 6 years old Christopher Lopez who is always willing to say the opening and closing prayers. He's always the first to shoot his hand up in the air with eagerness to speak to our father in heaven. Their enthusiasm for the gospel hits me every sunday, and I am grateful to be a part of their childhood development.
" I have been blessed... with so much more than I deserve. I thank God for all I've been given at the end of every day!"
I am grateful for all I have. Sunday session is going to be amazing too. Can't wait.

It's amazing how much a child can teach us adults. I've been the Primary secretary for 2 1/2 years and was just called in January as the new Primary president. It's such an important calling. To be able to teach the children the simple gospel principles that we somehow forget as we get older. My 4 year old amazes me when he tells me what he learned in Primary. He remembers so much. He loves to pray as well and reminds us at every meal and before bed. Their spirits are so sweet. Even my 1 year old understands the picture of Jesus. She gets so excited when she sees it. If only she could talk and tell me what she was thinking. I know that she knows who Jesus is. I know she remembers him. The veil is so thin for them still. Children believe so easily. It's amazing.
