I was going to add a picture of some flowers...but you will just have to imagine. I am grateful for flowers. What a great gift Heavenly Father gave us. He didn't have to make them beautiful, but He did. I have been feeling my usual Fall downer. I felt like Steve wasn't listening or trying to help me and I was a little ornery with him. The next morning as I was reading to the kindergartners, in walks a beautiful bouquet of red roses with Superman behind them. It was so neat. There were a bunch of women in the library at the time. I think some of them got a little misty eyed. I finished with the class and got a wonderful hug from Steve. I have loved those flowers. They smell beautiful and the rich red color with delicate white Baby's Breath is treating my eyes. My sweetheart is so thoughtful. I think he is heading to perfection way ahead of me.
Then on Saturday night, President Uchdorf used a tiny beautiful flower to help remind me of my Heavenly Father's love and encouragement. I am certainly going to plant forget Me Nots in my yard. I want to remember what the five petals of the Forget Me Not stand for, the things that I am not supposed to forget.
That:
I need to be patient with myself.
The difference between good sacrifice and foolish sacrifice
Be happy now
They why of the gospel
The Lord loves me.
I making a reminder card to put in my Positive Book with more details. I needed that talk. I feel like Heavenly Father spoke to me and to all the women in my life that are pulling me along to the Celestial Kingdom.

I saw your husband walking in with those flowers and got all happy for you. You deserve them. You're a wonder women yourself.
President Uchdorf always gives such an uplifting talk, but that was just what I needed to hear. Now if I can put it to good use.
Thank you my dear, dear, daughter, for all the inspirational gems you share on your blog. I cherish you and yes, you have a neat husband and he has just as neat a wife. God bless you both! Love,Mom
