Better Mom

It has been a long time since I have written down anything. As I was laying in bed this morning, listening to all of the "Mormon Messages" on the LDS website, (also available on You Tube http://www.youtube.com/watch?=KHDvxpjsm8E&feature-=player_Embedded# LDS.org is easier.)it got me thinking. (A dangerous past-time.) The message that got to me the most was about a woman, Stephanie Nielson, who was in an airplane crash and survived, not without injury. She was severly burnt on her face, neck, hands and arms. Yet she testifies that she is a better person because of her trials. She feels like she is a better mother and wife because of what she has to go through. She talks about the woman she used to be how she is returning to that woman as a better person. She has inspired me to start blogging again. This is for me and my posterity. Hopefully when the kids grow up they can look back, laugh and cry at the memories. I want to be a better mom and I am thankful she shared her story to inspire me. She has a blog also I have posted it to blogs I follow.
