Spiritual Thought.

So today at church, we decided to have Matt take Quade home after sacrament meeting (he is breaking a molar and just off his game) and that I would stay with Dexter so that he would go to nursery (which he is still getting used to) I am not going to lie, sometimes after sacrament meeting, at 1pm, we just head home. Fighting the fight all through sacrament just to stand in the halls with quade, AH!

So today dexter went to nursery and did great! We have really great leaders, they have really helped him adjust.

I actually got something out of church! Yeah! In relief society we were going over some great thoughts that were from a special fireside they had. I was out of town, so it was great to get the summery today. There is something we talked about that really stood out to me...

There 4 things we should do in the morning to help us be best prepared for the day:
1. Role out of bed, onto our knees. I like that they were not all "jump" out of bed. Cause a role is way more realistic.
2. Grab you scriptures.
3. Make your bed. Hello, then you don't get back in it :) Plus, it gets your day off to a more clean, organized start.
4. Get dressed and ready for the day. Because that way you are ready to take on the day. I am guilty of wearing pjs way to long in the morning, that is forsure.

This is what I am going to try this week!

Another thing we talked about was: The world is always talking about "Living the dream." something to remember: living is the journey and the dream is the afterlife.... Interesting perspective right?

It was so nice to go to church and actually feel the spirit and totally be able to focus on why we are at church and not making sure quade isn't pulling apart someone else's purse.
