So I really loved preparing with my babies and eternal company to go to the House of the Lord last Saturday morning. It was the very first thing we planned for the day. Besides "Runtling's" spasms of 2 year-old rebelliousness and juggling all of Rojo's baby paraphernalia, all was peaceful and beautiful! Parent #1 went in first for a little moment, while I tried really lovingly to persuade the "runtling" to be his very best, QUIET, and gentle self as we waited in the waiting room. It lasted for as long as he concentrated on opening the tiny container of mini blocks. Then he demanded (very megaphone-like) that I open them, and so on. "Trade you shifts now." "Hurry this one has a stinky load!"
I absolutely love to see the temple, but I definitely love to share it with my family even more.
isn't it such a peaceful, happy place. and the greatest escape for the family :)
ReplyDeleteI love to see the temple. I relate to juggling little ones in and out of the temple.
ReplyDeleteI wish SO BAD that I could have that struggle too! maybe when I have as many as you two . . . I love to see the temple, and at least we have the wonderful opportunity to go an do other proxy work - hey it ALL NEEDS to be done so I'll do it for now.
ReplyDeleteI "love love love" what you did on accident here! (nothing is really an accident, so you did it on purpose for me- I love words and their many meanings...) You were posting, typing, thinking of the big eternal pic here, and typed company for companion....
ReplyDelete**And you taught me!** I immediately thought, 'I like that!' It is true. K. IS my eternal company. Always.And if we aren't fantastic company to each other now, and I treat him like most very important,special company he is, well- I can lose his company in life. We are all in good company. Its our job to recognize it :) We want to keep it eternal. Also, you are ALL my eternal company! I want to be with you, and I want to be there, so thank you for taking my company to the temple! Thats part of how we remember to practice "being good eternal company" for forever! xoxo
