Women's Conference 2007

My Sis in law Wendy and I.

I wanted to post a few of my thoughts about Women's Conference. I attended Fridays session of Women's Conference. I arrived in Salt Lake Weds. afternoon. I spent Weds. evening, and part of Thursday in Salt Lake visiting with my Mother in law, Father in law, and sister in law. It was good to be able to spend time with them.

There where so many wonderful things about Women's Conference. I think the one thing that always touches my heart the most, is looking around and seeing so many sweet sisters of the gospel, in one place at one time. I get so touched to think that we are all there to listen to the sweet words that are shared in the gospel. I loved President, and sister Hollands talk they gave at the closing of conference. The question was asked...What time is this? It is a time to be grateful. We where counseled to never underestimate our devine role. We are the every day instruments that God has always used in his every day use. Life, love, energy, holiness, intelligence, and great strength. We are all of these things. We also where given a beautiful blessing by Brother Holland. What a wonderful Man of God. I feel blessed to have heard the words that where spoken on Friday.

I am home now, and in full swing of the role of "Mom." I have much laundry to do, grocery shopping, cleaning etc. I sit here this morning, and think to myself...How blessed I am. There is nothing more that I would rather be doing today than serving my family.
