Just a few thoughts

Well I haven't posted in a while, because not much has been goin on. We enjoyed conference over the weekend and it finally feels like fall outside. My girls are still taking forever to go to sleep at night. Maybe one day they'll just go to sleep. I really felt like I gained a lot from conference and Pres. Monson's talk about enjoying the now was what touched me the most. Of course I can't quote him directly, but the statement about how I shouldn't wish away all of my todays because they will only lead to empty yesterdays meant a lot. I tend to wish for a day when I can enjoy myself and do things that I like to do. I really do need to focus on today and as Oprah loves to say, "be present." Pres. Monson also mentioned all of the toys strewn about the house, he must have peeked through my window, and told us that we should not focus so much on getting the house spotless as we should playing with our children. One day the house will be clean and stay that way, but only because the children have all left. Guilty again. Sometimes I worry and stress about my house, which by the way is never all clean at once, that I put playing with my kids off. Today was a pretty good day and I tried to relax and just be in the moment. I love those munchkins and they are growing up so fast. So here's to all us Moms that are striving to be a little better each day.
