Gratitude

I love going to the temple. I just got back from my weekly temple session. I made a goal when Isaac started first grade to go to the temple weekly and with a few exceptions, like spring break, I've made it to the 10:30 session each Tuesday. There is such peace and joy to be found in regular temple attendance. Something that I never quite felt in the same way when I would go more sporadically. I am thankful to my two temple buddies, Sister Barton and Sister Thiele. They are both such wonderful friends and I'm so glad we can attend as a group. It will never become mundane and I won't ever take the temple for granted as long as Betty is with me. She is brought to tears almost weekly just for the opportunity to go. What and example she is to me of life long faithfulness, endurance and living the gospel joyfully. I am truly blessed. I have a wonderful, faithful man as my husband, four great children and a temple close by to remind me of my covenants and our forever family. What more is there? Nothing that matters. I thank my Savior, Jesus Christ for making it all possible. God is great and we are so blessed!
