Love, peace, joy, kindness, eternity


Eternity sign


My husband's last blog post has left my mind swirling and this little song I've been hearing all season just kept coming back, it seems to sum it up so perfectly for me.
(push play to the right if it's not playing) I think in a nutshell it's just kind of black and white all the traditional and pretty stuff and fun stuff is great and fun but it's just that, I just can't take it to serious when I compare it to what it would mean to give someone a true "gift". Just imagine if we all could give each other something like this, the gifts of eternity. Reminds me of a note sent to my brother when he worked and did everything he could to finally take his beautiful wife and baby to the temple. Dear brother, thank you for reuniting our family forever, thank you for sealing the link back up, thank you for what you did today for your posterity and mine. That is a gift I will never forget.
So yes I will have fun getting the beautiful wrapping and fun gifts but above lies my true wish list that I pray for and wish for all year not just at this time, if I was to receive from it, therein would be my try joy. Wishing you love, peace, and everything your heart desires at this time of year.
