A Change of Heart


"Motherhood...is near to divinity. It is the highest, holiest service to be assumed by mankind. It places her who honors its holy calling and service next to the angels."
-The First Presidency, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

I've been fighting against it for five years and as I look at this picture taken by Andrea, my sister-in-law, I see nothing but smiling faces, cute feet, wind-blown hair and joy. I think it's time I embraced being a mother.

Last week I had a change of heart about many things in my life. I realized I needed an attitude adjustment. I've always known I've needed to focus more on the positives, especially regarding my children. But knowing is never enough. This blog is about the doing.

I had one of those (a change of heart) at about 11:45 this morning. I don't know what it was, but light went off or bells rang or whistles. . .whistled. :) I realized that I'm actually living a dream better than I could have come up with on my own, but I was only focusing on the negative. Changes of the heart are wonderful!
