In the past few months I have really felt the weight on my shoulders in my role as a mother. I know what an important job this is... in fact, the most important job I will ever have. And yet, without a doubt this is the hardest job I will ever have. I also know with a certainty that my role as mother has brought and will continue to bring me more joy than I ever imagined!

One day, the distinct impression came to me that I needed to find more JOY in everyday. Life of a stay-at-home mom can be quite mundane, and because of that I was letting little moments slip by... moments that I am sure I will one day long for again!

And then I read this: “Ask yourself, 'How did God bless me today?' If you do that long enough and with faith, you will find yourself remembering blessings. And sometimes, you will have gifts brought to your mind which you failed to notice during the day, but which you will then know were a touch of God’s hand in your life.” –Henry B. Eyring

After reading the quote by President Eyring I felt like I had found a missing piece to a puzzle. This blog is to record those little moments, so that I may more fully see the touch of God's hand in my life, and find more JOY in everyday!

While I was standing in line at the grocery store today I was reading some of the headlines on the covers of magazines. I thought to myself... Man, I'm glad I'm not famous. I can go about and live my life, make mistakes, enjoy my children without being scrutinized by others! That's a pretty awesome thing!
