Primary Program

Today was our ward's primary program. There was a sister kneeling down by the pulpit. She was helping the little kids with their parts. She said a line, Jake repeated it. She said another line, Jake repeated it. She told him "good job" and he was so focused on listening & repeating he repeated that too!
Gracie had her part memorized, but read it. When I asked her why she read it when she had worked so hard to memorize it she replied, "well, I had it, so why not read it?" She read it very clear & loud and she did look cute.
You would think that sitting with only one would be easy, not so. Miss Gretchen was on Mike's lap leaning over the bench and looked back at me and asked, "Mom, you having more kids?" I shook my head back & forth, all those surrounding us were giggling. Then, "Mom, you don't want more kids? You don't like kids?" It was quite embarrassing. My face was so red, I could feel it.
Oh, I do love being the momma. I have just felt the spirit so strongly today. I am so very grateful for the gospel & the sweet promptings that my Heavenly Father gives me. I can fell His spirit so often. I am very grateful to be a member of the Church of Jesus Christ. Today I taught a lesson in Relief Society. The lesson was from Elder Uchtdorf's April conference address. It was titles Faith of our Father. We explored many aspects of this topic. It really made me thankful for my heritage and the family that raised me. I am thankful for the prophets that are on the earth today, but also for those that came before & took great lengths to record their experiences that we may learn from them, but also that we might be able to relate to them & their experiences. I know that this is the complete gospel, that God lives & provides continuing revelation today. I am thankful for the prophet & the leaders of this church. It is good to be a Mormon!
