Mothers Who Know Stand Strong and Immovable

Who will prepare this righteous generation of sons and daughters? Latter-day Saint women will do this—women who know and love the Lord and bear testimony of Him, women who are strong and immovable and who do not give up during difficult and discouraging times. We are led by an inspired prophet of God who has called upon the women of the Church to “stand strong and immovable for that which is correct and proper under the plan of the Lord.” 6 He has asked us to “begin in [our] own homes” 7 to teach children the ways of truth. Latter-day Saint women should be the very best in the world at upholding, nurturing, and protecting families. I have every confidence that our women will do this and will come to be known as mothers who “knew” (Alma 56:48). In the name of Jesus Christ, amen.

For Mothers Day all I wanted was for my gang, husband included, to help me spring clean the house. So, Monday morning they were ready to help. We worked all day and got a lot done. It fells so good to have the house super cleaned. They all worked so hard, and were not so enthusiastic after they realized that mom was really going to clean. I moved furniture and cleaned under and behind, how crazy is that? Austin was great and got so much done. It really was the best present because it just keeps on giving, every time I walk into the rooms it feels so clean and I can remember how hard they worked for me. Thanks boys your are the best and it was the best present.

Addler about done cleaning for the day, and his countenance is not so happy as it started out to be.:)

We spent Mothers Day at both of our Mothers house. I thought it would be neat to have a picture with both of our mothers. They are both great women, and I think they raised some pretty great kids. The quote at the top is from one of my favorite talks ever. These two mothers are "Mothers Who Know". Thank you both for your sacrifices to your children and your grandchildren. You are both a example to follow.

Look close go click make it bigger ( direct your eyes to Addler and Ruxton)at the first picture, yes I am the proud mother of these boys. It only took us five or six tries to finally get a good picture!

Thank you Maestin, Addler, Ruxton, and Holdan for allowing me to be your mother. It is the greatest joy to be a mother to four amazing boys. You are a light in my life, and bring a smile to my face and heart numerous times a day. What would I do with out my cowboys to keep me guessing what is coming next? Your testimonies and spirit are a example of strength to me. Thank you for coming to my home!
