A thought for the day

"A fascinating thing about joy and love, with which you are surely familiar, is that when we enlarge our capacity to love, other people become real individuals, not merely functions. Gospel duties cease to be mere routine and become, instead, doors to delight. Every doctrine of the gospel is a door to delight that, when opened, exposes us to a vista of things we have not yet fully comprehended."

-Elder Neal A. Maxwell, Jan 1996.

Terrah, you are a gem. Thanks for sharing, and thanks for being a great friend. We had a really fun time on Friday. Thanks!

I'm playing catch up with blogs... that's so exciting that you're having a baby girl! Evelyn is a beautiful name. And I know Thanksgiving was a long time ago, but I'm jealous that you got to go to Grand America! Sigh... someday I'll go. Sounds like it was a wonderful holiday (except for the mess you mentioned in the small print... ugh.). We can't be responsible parents every second, can we? ;-)
