I Love Home

Have I ever mentioned that I love home?  I have always enjoyed being at home.  I love the spirit that we feel in our home.  It's the contentment that I love the very most.  Every member of our family, is trying to do their very best in life.  I feel extreme gratitude for the gifts and talents that each member of our family brings.  It is a wonderful life. 
Becky and I went out with her parents and enjoyed dinner together, then went to the tabernacle, at Temple Square, to listen to the Orchestra at Temple Square with soloist Josh Wright on the piano.  It was really wonderful to listen to the extreme talent of all who participated.  I was glad to spend time with mom and dad.
Our children were at home and it felt nice to know that they were okay.  It is so nice to have them be the ages that they are and know that while we were away, they were fine.
Once Becky and I got home, I felt grateful for the bounteous blessings we so enjoy!
Today, we have gotten some things done around the house to be able to start off our week nicely.
When Becky and I first got married, I dreamed of having a family that would bring me great joy.  Although I had no idea how many children we would have, I desired to have a family, nonetheless.  I have loved Becky so much for her willingness to be the one responsible to carry those babies and bring them safely to this world.  She always did everything she could to guarantee that they were healthy.  I have watched her be a mother who cares deeply for her children.  She amazes me every day.
I feel grateful, every day, for all that she does to make each of our lives better.  She is an amazing homemaker!
I thank heaven for a place that we can call home.  We are blessed immensely. 
I hope that each one of us can see, feel, and understand the love behind the blessings we are so freely given.
