Tuesday March 7

So I had such a hard time staying awake this morning....so after I dropped the kids off at school, I took a much needed nap.

Dad went and helped at Justin's house again.

After I woke up, I started going through the DI pile.

I am going to try to take some kids clothes to the used kids stores before making a DI run with all the stuff, but I needed to separate the clothes and fold them and stuff.

So that is what I worked on.

I helped at the school in the afternoon with kindergarten registration.

Elsie had speech after school, and then after that, we all went to the Edwards for a birthday celebration for me :)

We finally had the neighborhood in town, except for the Morgans :)

It was a quick get together because the boys all had to leave for football practice.

Dad is the coach again.

He wasn't planning on it, and then they asked him if he would.......so he is :)

It will be fun for the boys.

I went to the Stake RS conference this evening.

It was a very nice night.

Talking about the Bravery of Being....

Being a mom, being a friend, being patient......

It was a great presentation given by Shelley Carson.

She gave us tools for spiritual, physical, psychological, and emotional self-care and well being.

I took lots of notes, but who knows if I will be able to read my handwriting!

She used the example of the message you hear on an airline about the oxygen mask.....

You are told to secure the mask on yourself and then help others.

So that is what she did tonight, gave us tools to 'put our oxygen mask on' so then we can then move on and help those around us.

We are all angels for someone else with important gifts to offer.
