Easter Etc.

Eden had three Easters this year! Sometimes I overlook the holidays and forget to teach her or start traditions, but not this one. Firstly, our ward put one on. Then only I was home Saturday so with Michelle we entreated Eden to another celebration. But only Micah was home Sunday, and he wanted to celebrate with her toooooo. And just so you don't think we are pagan with all the egg hunts, we discussed many times Jesus' love and resurrection.



I also wanted to share a couple of my favorite parts of conference. I didn't catch alot since I worked one day, and watched a two year old the other, but here's what I liked.
Brother McMullin talked about how things can get better and better even in the face of tragedy.
Brother W.W. Anderson also says Our happiness is not dependent on our circumstances, we don't have to be products of circumstances. Between our work and Jesus's atonement we can be happy. "The difference between the devils and the faithful members of this Church is not belief but work"
Elder Christofferson shared many of the blessings of the scriptures. "I suppose that never in history has a people been blessed with such a quantity of holy writ." And has no other time had such the need for them.

I could not agree with more on the conference talks... They were so comforting to me and a strength. It is so amazing that they were so inspired and it touched people in different ways... And as for three Easters... Eden is the luckiest girl alive... I love Easter... and ours was very rushed as we were in vegas and traveling home on Sunday...
