What Mothers Want

We had a great time on our trip to visit Grandpa & Grandma and Kathy & Don.

We enjoyed everything we did, including Roger finally getting a boat to practice his sailing skills on.



I wish I had taken some photos of the 20 tulips we gave Roger's mom for Mother's Day and the beautiful orchid corsage Les gave her. It was so nice to see her smile.

The only ward we could find that was having Sacrament Meeting at 9 am yeterday was a student ward, so that's where we went. We were a little late, and of course the only empty seats were on the front row, but that was okay. I received a HUGE Snickers bar instead of the usual bedding plant. :) Well worth it!

We listened to 3 young men, labeled by the bishopric as "mama's boys" - They all gave great messages about mothers. The first one had asked his mom to send some comments via email, which he shared. Her final comments were something like this:

The greatest gift any mother can receive is to know that her children are living the gospel of Jesus Christ and that they are raising their families to do the same.

How profound! She expressed well how I feel. I don't need anything else.
