Week 2

This is Emeline in her pj's. She loves to sleep in my or David's t-shirts and I think it is wonderful. I used to love sleeping in my Dad's giant t-shirts too! 

This week I bought some Clementines at the store and Em has been eating about 2 a day. One morning I peeled one for her and she turned around and grabbed another one out of the refrigerator. She asked in a little, sweet voice if she could peel one for me since I peeled one for her. It was one of those "good-mommy" moments that illustrated something good that I had taught her and she was reciprocating it. It reminded me of what is stated in the The Family: A Proclamation to the World, 

"Parents have a sacred duty to rear their children in love and righteousness, to provide for their physical and spiritual needs, and to teach them to love and serve one another, observe the commandments of God, and be law-abiding citizens wherever they live. Husbands and wives—mothers and fathers—will be held accountable before God for the discharge of these obligations."

  

I hope that my children remember the good and positive things that I teach them instead of the negative things. I hope I can utilize the time that I have as their mother to teach them the things that are the most important to me. Most of all, I hope that the way I act towards them lets them know how much I love them and how much their Father in Heaven and their Savior loves them. No matter what.
