I have been thinking a lot about the responsibility of parenthood. This weekend was General confrence, and so many of the speakers chose topics associated with parenting. I felt how much the Lord really cares for His little ones. The responsibility is so great because they are not just mine. But they are His.
For now if you would like to share just leave it as a comment, I am still working out the details of how to make this work best. I would like to hear from everyone.

Open doors and open hearts go together, but insight and wisdom must accompany the opening.
Tali, we have to be listed as authors in the blog set up or we cannot post here except as comments. Also, please sent it so we don't have to write in the word to make a comment. If you don't know how, one of us could work with you to show you how.
I've been struggling with my Spanish, especially as we are Service Missionaries in a Spanish ward. Last week I took one of the ward members to the dentist, so I could translate for him, as he is a recent immigrant without much English. I learned my Spanish comprehension is better than I thought. If you can understand someone when the dentist's hands are in their mouth, you can understand them ANYTIME!
Tali, this is a brilliant idea.
Dose it have to be one thing?
I suppose mine would be "to everything there is a season" and more importantly, *I* don't get to control the seasons. either the actual season, or where other people are on their path. It's really frustrating. Rather than rush people along at my pace, I'm trying to experiment with slowing down to match theirs.
Tali, what a great idea! So will this just be comments from here on out? Brilliant!
What I learned this last week is LOVE. Not just plain old ordinary love, but true love of everyone. Not that it is a new concept for me or anything, but the talk that President Dieter F. Uchtdorf gave about the "canned food converts" was so powerful.
I learned that as a Parent I need to take the time, really take the time with Josh. I can tell when I don't he is more distruptive and sad. When I do take the time he is happier and plays better. Thank you for this. I love you sis!
I think I have learned more about the importance of family and working together. I think each week you should post what you learned Tali and then everyone else can post a comment for that week of what they learned. Like as if you are starting it each week. Very good idea by the way.
not sure why it is showing 7 comments on the main page and then you get to here and only three appear. if any knows please let me know. Did four people delete theirs? I hope not.
Life will go on. No matter how bad it seems right now or whether I think it can get worse or better, it just continues. One day at a time and without fail. I am appreciating how life progresses without any effort from me and that I only need to keep up on my end to move along with it.
What I learned recently is that, call it karma or call it blessings, if you put good stuff out there, you will, in general, get good stuff back. Although it might not be in the anticipated, or hoped for way. Having sunshine in your soul is contagious.
