Wow... i can't begin to describe the feeling that this last weekend gave me. I really do love President Monson... he's always been one that I looked forward to hearing at conference time! I spent the whole weekend waiting for him to speak... I couldn't wait to hear what the first things he said as our new prophet would be! And I was not disappointed. I feel really lucky to be apart of a church that believes in such wonderful men to guide and teach us to be better people by following their examples and devouring the word of the Lord through them!
I loved all the talks and espically the First Presidency... love 'em... but the talk in the 2nd Sunday session was a funny one for us. I forgot who it was, but he was talking to young mothers and then he started talking to the kids and he was saying about picking up their toys etc... then he said and kids tell you mothers that you love them. All of a sudden from no where Zach says in this little sing song voice, "Mommy I love you!". We all started laughing Natalie may have said "brown noser" Ahh so funny! Proof that they listen even when you are not sure they are!
I kept telling the kids that we are so lucky to get to watch conference in our PJ's and have our yummy traditional cinnamon rolls and daddy's "secret" eggs. Some people have to get dressed up and watch it on satellitte. some don't even get it at all and some like our Jeff have to wait and watch it later... we are so blessed beyond anything that I think we can comprehend. I goes beyond having such a wonderful prophet to lead and quide us... having the Book of Mormon... having the nice houses and clothes and friends. We have the truth. We know that we will live with our families again and that we will be with our Father again... what more is there?

That talk was by Elder Ballard. It was one of my favorites.
