Live In the Moment

And I wish I could remember what we ate, and what we talked about, and how they sounded, and how they looked when they slept that night. I wish I had not been in such a hurry to get on to the next thing: dinner, bath, book, bed. I wish I had treasured the doing a little more and the getting it done a little less” (Elder Ballard’s talk May, 2008 quote by Author Anna Quindlen speaking of her children)

- I put this on here to remind me to take time to enjoy the little things in life, or to enjoy the moments that make some of Life's Precious Memories.

Sisters

(Story told to me by Nathan.)

Saturday I took Emily with me to go shopping while Meredith took her nap. Emily loved it. While we were away Nathan was working while he listened for Meredith to wake up (I was sort of hoping to get back before she woke up). She woke up before we got home and went looking around the house. Then she came back to Daddy and asked, "Where's Emily?" I think that is so cute. Those girls really do love each other and it is such a joy to see.

Meredith continues to amaze me with how much she learns to say. Thursday I was babysitting Emily's friend Carter and Meredith's friend Mya. Meredith at one point came up to Mya and said, "Come on, Mya. What are you doing?" I can't believe some of the sentences such a young child can say. She also says the prayers on the food pretty much by herself. We'll start her off and then she'll say the rest by herself.
