Today was a low key day, another 100° day.. So hot! Brian  went to help set up chairs for stake conference first thing in the morning. It was so nice that the girls didn't ask to watch something first thing. Even when I say no every morning... They always ask. Not today. They just played and played. I made breakfast and Olivia was sitting at the table drawing and coloring in the book she got from chick fil a the other day. It's so cute to see her so focused. But she is so disappointed and frustrated when she doesn't do something exactly right or how she wanted to. I'm trying to help her realize that it's ok and that she can make even a mistake something great and maybe even better than what you initially intended to do. Then we started Mary Poppins and just a little bit into it daddy came home. They all run to see daddy.. They love him so much. And he came home with doughnuts! Did a few chores and then Brian took Olivia and Lanaya down to the pool. He is such a great father for his girls. He plays with them so well. I took Logan and we went shopping. Then Brian and I switched at the pool. Yes, we have a beautiful family. And my girls are very well behaved. And they're great swimmers. All things I hear constantly, but I will admit, I love it. I know I have no idea what I'm doing and I go day to day and that I can be doing a lot better but it always makes me feel good inside knowing that I'm doing something a little right. Then I went to the adult session for stake conference. First talk was by sister Knowlton about motherhood. It was such a great talk! Helped me remember that I need to be closer to the spirit so I can listen and follow it. God gave the female his power to reproduce. We are in a partnership with him, he will always be there for us.
Then a wonderful talk about keeping the Sabbath  day holy and making it a delight. Both were talks that I needed to hear. I've been trying to figure out something like a Sunday tradition for our family to do. A way for us to have fun together and still keep the Sabbath day holy.
