This past week I have felt overwhelmed. It seems as if I am just going through the motions. Wake up, change diapers, play, read books, nap time, homework, do laundry, play, change diapers, pay bills, oh and nurse nurse nurse. I don't want that. I want to present. I want to be involved, invested in my life. 

As I was reading something for an assignment, I felt so humbled. I have everything I have ever wanted. My life is full of love and pure joy. I am married to an amazing man, I am expanding my education, I am living the gospel, and I have the most precious healthy baby in the world. The chaos that comes with these blessings is so worth it. I just wanted to publicly thank my Heavenly Father for all that he has blessed me with. Even in the midst of trials, He is so GOOD. He is everything we could ever need.

This Christmas Season I want to pray harder to have the pure love of Christ with me and do all I can to serve his children. I invited you all to join with me in my church's #LIGHTtheWORLD challenge. This challenge is perfect for all faiths and believers. Let us all try harder to come closer to Christ and serve his sons and daughters.
