Today started off with my Peak which was my lesson. I worked really hard on the lesson. I felt like I was prepared and that I had a love a desire to teach this lesson. I was a little nervous I had to much stuff and thus I would seem like I was skipping around and the lesson wouldn't go smoothly. However I think the lesson. Went perfectly. I feel like I shared everything I wanted too, and I feel like a few things came to me as I was teaching the lesson. Overall I know the women heard me. I know they knew I had a testimony of what I was teaching, and I know the spirit was there. After my lesson before I song I heard a lot of people whispering to each other saying what a great lesson it was, and that I was a great teacher. I felt wonderful. Then after the prayer several women came up to me and said they loved it. One elderly women who I admire came up to me with tears in her eyes and told me it was the best lesson she ever had. After that I was soaring. It was a good day.
The only thing that was rough about today was getting up. I have been so tired lately. Lilly is a good baby. However she has started this new thing where at her second feeding she doesn't go back to sleep right away. I am always up for about two hours and it has started to take a toll on me. So the Pit for me today was feeling so tired. Thank goodness it was Sunday and good old Jacob let me get a nice hour nap.
After we all got a little nap we hoped in our bikes and went to the park. I left my phone at the house (on purpose) and just enjoyed being at the park with my family. Jacob was helping Eli with baseball and I held Lilly and followed Liam around. I loved listening to him have fun. I loved seeing his joy and best of all Lilly thought he was so funny playing she kept belling laughing the whole time. I also got to watch Eli and Jacob working and playing together. That was an adventure in itself teaching a 4 year old to safely use a bat! On top off all this the weather was beautiful. It was perfect actually. Not too hot. Not too cold and it had a nice breeze. I Never want to forget that is how you enjoy the park. Leave the electronics at home and enjoy your family. Be in the moment!
p.s one more thing I don't want to forget is how excited Eli was for this day. Also he was very concerned that everything was going to get pinched because it had no green on. He went around saying things like our door needs a green sticker or it's gong to get pinched.
St. Patrick's Day tradition green eggs and ham.
Happy St. Patrick's day from little miss Lilly.
The finished project before relief society. Boys helped with all 45 of them. I think they turned out pretty cute. My lesson I felt went excellent as well.
