Duck Pond
While we were in Utah, we went and visited the duck pond by the BYU campus. The weather was gorgeous and perfect. The kids loved feeding the ducks.I know I at least saw Ben taking a few bites of the bread that was meant for the ducks. The kids were disappointed when they ran out of bread. We had so much fun as a family going to the duck pond while Brandon and I attended BYU. It was nice to remember some of the great memories. I think the picture below captures the personality of my kids and the crazy days that we have together. I am so lucky to have three great kids.

"If you are still in the process of raising children, be aware that the tiny fingerprints that show up on almost every newly cleaned surface, the toys scattered about the house, the piles and piles of laundry to be tackled will disappear all too soon and that you will—to your surprise—miss them profoundly." -President Thomas S Monson
Sisters, there is something inspiring and sublime about the little forget-me-not flower. I hope it will be a symbol of the little things that make your lives joyful and sweet. Please never forget that you must be patient and compassionate with yourselves, that some sacrifices are better than others, that you need not wait for a golden ticket to be happy. Please never forget that the “why” of the gospel of Jesus Christ will inspire and uplift you. And never forget that your Heavenly Father knows, loves, and cherishes you.—President Dieter F. Uchtdorf
