My little Sunbeam...




A few weeks ago at church, Grace entered Sunbeams in Primary (just a fancy way of saying she's finally with the older kids at church. They sing songs, have a gospel related message and then split into classes, aka: Sunbeams.) She gave her fist talk on Sunday about how we believe in God, Jesus Christ & the Holy Ghost. Trav helped her as she held up her little picture of Jesus. As I sat in the back of the room, trying to get a picture, I couldn't help but tear up as I watched her. She was so willing, smiling and adorable. It was what I call a "Mommy Moment."- those moments when you feel like your heart is melting from all the love you're feeling. My heart was so full of gratitude for my Heavenly Father. I know I am far from where I should be, but I try everyday to live my life the best I can, closer to my Savior. (Yes, I watch SNL which is naughty, and yes, I already know where I could go if I keep watching it, so minus that, I try REALLY hard!)I am so thankful for the gospel that teaches me and my family about Heavenly Father, his Son and how to be happy in this life. My heart was so full as I watched my little girl last week. I am beyond thankful for my sweet little family.
