Snuggling up with Shrek 3 and my two boys, Provo, the Temple and other good things.

Tonight at bedtime my sweet little boys snuggled up next to me as we read Shrek 3 the picture book and it made me feel so happy.  It reminded me of Provo. The first time I ever drove through that great town at night with a dear friend.  It felt like Heaven to me.  I remember how peaceful and clean I felt at that stage in my life.  It was an exciting feeling.  I felt that same feeling again tonight with my boys.  I thought of how much my life has changed and evolved and just how darn lucky I am to be feeling the Holy ghost.  I thought of how I felt as a child in the evenings as I sat in my bedroom freshly cleaned by my mom.  I loved it when she did that.  I love her.  I started thinking about the temple and going in the morning then I started to think about all of the things I need to do.  Spencer shredded my record of income and expenses for my photography business I need to piece that back together somehow , I need to make a tricky fix to two of my pictures for a client of mine who may or may not be coming back into town in the next few days asking about her pictures. I have a few of these tricky jobs I just don't want to face.   Then I remembered I can pray for help and somehow I will be able to get those two things done.  It seems so simplistic as I say it but it means a lot to me.  Thank goodness for prayer, what would I do without that sense of peace and direction.  I have spent so much of my life without it It almost seems to good to be true.  What a gift.  So to make a long story short.  I love my boys, I love reading them stories and caring for them.  I love my happy memories of good meaningful times in my life, and thank goodness for prayer and the influence of the Holy Ghost.
