Today was a good day. We all got to go to church today. That always makes things nice. There were some nice talks about mothers. One of the points that was mentioned was that we should also honor all those women, who take a motherly role in our lives. There have been many in my life that have stepped in this role. Many of our ward members currently fill in this role as we have been through the past months. I remember Sister Amone on my mission, who I called my Tongan mother. These women deserve our honor and praise.
My two mothers are very important to me. My mother and Jess's mother both give us love and strength. We are grateful for them and kindess and love that they show us.
Jess is an amazing women. I am very grateful to her for the mother that she is to my children. She is so good to them and does a great job to teach them what is right. She surprises me with her strength in taking care of our family.
Last night, I had the opportunity to go to the temple as part of stake temple day. I was impressed on how important the temple is in our families. Looking at the chandelier in the Celestial room, I was reminded on how great an influence a person can have on his family. It starts with a single person and just fans out to an enormous amount of people. How grateful I am for all those who have been an influence in my life.
The past week has been mostly calm. We have gotten back into some routine. Sarah didn't have any appointments this week. It was nice to have an off week. She starts back up on Monday.
Thanks for all the support and love. I am constantly amazed at all the service that is given to me and my family.
