Happy Mothers day

Happy Mothers day to all the fantastic ladies in my life. Jeff was nice enough to give me an assignment to speak in church today. My topic is easy,"Mothers." Since we serve in a singles ward my talk to single women is entitled, "Every women is a mother." I can't tell you how many Mother's days I have spent without a child. This is the first one with baby in hand:) However, I am grateful that very early in my marriage I was blessed with the knowledge that I too was a mother and I didn't need a child to be one. I could work on developing my divine nature right now and have a positive attitude that my heavenly father was guiding my life. At times I admit it was a challenge keeping my faith strong and believing that someday I would be blessed with children. I am so grateful that heavenly father allowed me that opportunity.
