Just a quickie

Way, way over there on the side and down a bit..yeah there...you will see a bit where i've put up for scrap blogs....if you wanna be listed there..let me know and i'll put your blog addy there...why? Cos if your like me and save em all on your computer, if something goes wrong what happens? You lose em! Or in my case you have to write them down somewhere so I figured a better idea is to list the ones that are scrapbook related, as I have with some others that I like, and I can never again go through this pain and torture of writing out so many blogs!!

Next plan is to actually visit them all AND leave comments! I live in hope! :)

Moving on...as I was browsing some talks on you tube I found an edited version of a talk from the General Conference held two weeks ago in my church. Julie B Beck is the General Relief Society President and a fantastic speaker. Here is the edited version and some highlights from her talk:




The full version is very powerful and intended to encourage Lds (and other) mothers to aim higher, reach further, believe harder, encourage more and remind us who we are and how important we and our works are. Enjoy!




Some things are meant to be shared, and just like my family, I am proud to share the parts of my faith that I feel particularly inspired to. The above talk initially made me feel a shock horror at my lack of 'perfection', I don't tick all the boxes Julie talked about, but knowing I am doing my mothering the best I know how, teaching my children as much as I feel I can and guiding them in a good direction then I know I am on a good track...and who knows one day I might find out i've done a particularly good job! :) Naturally every life is different, every situation and family set up is different but having such inspiration such as this talk makes me feel like anything is possible, if I desire it, work at it and do the best I can...I am on the right track!

I hope you enjoy the talk!
