Merry Christmas

This picture pretty much sums up our year. I'm feeling super blessed right about now... A few weeks ago I was asked to speak at a young woman's fireside about Mary and what qualities she would have had in order to raise the Savior. I thought a lot about it and in the end decided that she would have been a lot like me or any of you other mothers out there.  She would have been patient, loving, humble, frustrated, doubtful, and happy among many others. She might have been the chosen one who found favor with God but I sit here with 5 other children of His and so I think I might have found favor as well and so have all of you who live this crazy but miraculous life of motherhood. Merry Christmas!
