I do miss Korinne every day when she is in school, but I wouldn't trade these days with my boys for anything!! Porter wanted me to play with him today, so I decided to heed Elder Ballard's advice from Conference yesterday, and live in the moment and just enjoy these kids more while they are little. So, I cancelled my plans for Walmart and Costco (which didn't sound like much fun anyway), and I let Porter pick the games and then jumped in (literally) with both feet. It's amazing how an 18 month old can handle a lightsaber, but he's very good at it! So, boy games have a lot of running and jumping and wrestling and good guys and bad guys, and I could go on and on. Can you tell how much fun we had today?
Porter said it best when he said, "Mom, you're a good player!"
Thanks buddy, I had a great time! Let's do it again soon!
On another note, Conference this weekend was very uplifting and edifying. I didn't get to listen as intently to all the messages as I would have liked, (that's just how it goes with kids in the house). But I did feel a tremendous confirmation in my heart of our new prophet when I was able to participate in the solemn assembly on Saturday. I watched President Monson closely during this conference and I know without a doubt that he is our prophet and I sustain him wholeheartedly. I love him, and I can't wait to hear more from him.
And, anoter note....thanks girls for a wonderful weekend (Mar. 28-29). My girlfriends from highschool and I were able to get away for about 24 hours to Laurie's cabin in the Uintahs, and it was wonderful to reconnect with them all. When we get back together, it feels like the years haven't even passed. We stayed up most of the night talking, reminiscing, giggling, eating junk and just enjoying every minute! I sure missed the ones that weren't able to come, but we'll plan another, and I can't wait! Love ya gals!!
