You're acting like a Child: Conversations with Ivy

Conversations with Ivy

Ivy: "Mom, ya know how Buggy is in Girl Scouts?"

Me: "Yeah."

Ivy: "Well, I don't think she's gonna be very good at it, because she's not friendly, and she's not helpful, and she's not courageous, and she's not strong, and she's not considerate and she's not caring.

"What does considerate mean again?"

Yep, I am definitely going to miss these kids when they grow up!

Find Joy in the journey

"If you are in the process of raising children, be aware that the tiny fingerprints that show up on almost every newly cleaned surface, the toys scattered about the house, the piles and piles of laundry to be tackled will disappear all too soon and that you will- to your surprise- miss them profoundly. Stresses in our lives come regardless of our circumstances. We must deal with them the best we can. But we should not let them get in the way of what is most important- the people around us... We will never regret the kind words spoken, or our affection shown. Rather, our regrets will come if such things are omitted from our relationships with those who mean the most to us. May we cherish those we hold dear and express our love to them in word and in deed... My sincere prayer is that we may adapt to the changes in our lives, that we may realize what is most important, and that we may express our gratitude always and thus find joy in the journey."
-Thomas S. Monson
