Can't All Moms Get Along?

by Meredith Ethington

Yesterday, I went to a non-LDS Moms playgroup. Yep, that was the name of it. It strikes me as very silly. But, then again, I live in Utah. I recently met a friend at a park a month or so ago. She had just moved here, our little boys are about the same age, and she and I hit it off.

This Mother's day has to rank as one of the best so far in my book. It started on Saturday when my husband told me I could do whatever I wanted, and he would just go with the flow. I spent the day shopping by myself which is something I never get to do! Sunday was a beautiful day too.

love church music, and I especially love listening to it on Sundays. There is something about spiritual music that can definitely set the mood for you to attend church and feel the spirit. It also has a calming effect in my life as well.

Be Ye Therefore Perfect

As a member of the church, I've always known that the phrase perfection, or some form of it appears multiple times in the scriptures.

I have to share an act of kindness that someone did for me today. It is probably one of the nicest things anyone has done for me in a long time, and I'm not really sure she realizes how amazing of a gift it was for me. My baby has been struggling for several months now with tummy troubles.

As the primary president in my ward, and mother of three little ones, I'm always looking for ideas for lessons, sharing time, family home evening, etc. I have spoken before about the great website sugardoodle.net.

Have you ever thought about teaching your little ones about setting goals? I don't think I ever really learned the value of goal setting until I became a missionary.

Not often do I hunt quotes down from people that have given a great talk in Sacrament meeting, but this past week, I really wanted a copy of a quote I heard by Spencer W. Kimball read in such a talk.

Do You Open Up To Your Visiting Teachers?

I went visiting teaching last night. As usual, I always feel so much better about life when I get to go visiting teaching. This month, the topic of the visiting teaching message was visiting teaching. I thought that was interesting.

Stop It!

As usual, President Uchtdorf did not dissapoint with a talk that resonated with many members of the church. I know that it was a talk that I needed to hear, and probably a talk that most people could benefit from. It was titled, The Merciful Obtain Mercy.
