LDS youth really amaze me. With the recent passing of President Hinckley there was a story about teenagers all over dressing up for school on Monday in their Sunday best. Watch the video here:

Just very impressed. My feelings on President Hinckley's death? I am so grateful to have a prophet on the Earth today, and I know those keys are passed down to the next prophet, and that there is no question this all taken care of by our Heavenly Father. I will certainly miss President Hinckley, and his personality, and cuteness, but I know we will recieve the same divine council from the new prophet. I am also happy to know that Pres. Hinckley is with his sweetheart now, and I'm sure he's much happier than he was here. I remember the first time I ever went to General Conference and I heard President Hinckley speak for the first time. I literally heard the spirit whisper to me that this was a prophet of God, and I was literally hearing a spokesperson for my Heavenly Father. It was a really neat experience, one I'll never forget. I look forward to hearing President Monson speak and have that same assurance and knowledge that he is a true prophet of God.
Welcome to the land of long days and short nights. Days that drag, and years that fly. Little sleep and lots of tears. But even more love and laughter. Where ice pops cure everything (almost), and kisses are given freely. Lullabies are sung out of key, and laundry never gets put away. This is my life as a mommy.
