THANKFUL EASTER!

Well, it has been a blessed day. I took pause to think about the Savior, His life, love, unselfishness, example, &, most importantly, His sacrifice for each of us. I want to be more like Him. What do I do to show others that I love them? Do I live unselfishly, patiently, & offer a righteous example? If necessary, would I be willing to sacrifice everything for those I love? I believe each day is an opportunity to show love, patience, example. When we are doing & living according to the Savior's example, we are sacrificing a little of ourselves in order to become more like him. The time we take to listen to a child, the clothes we clean, the sick we care for, the visit we make, the lesson we teach, the pleasant smile we carry, the opportunity we take to lift another; each of these might be considered a bit of a sacrifice but all of these help us to become a little more like our Savior. I desire to do better &, therefore, become better each day.

You have truly made sufficient sacrifices for your family as a mother, wife, sister and daughter! I appreciate your example of doing whatever it takes to make it back to our Heavenly Father. Thank you for showing me and teaching me how to prioritize and see the eternal perspective of things.
I love you Mom!
