A Mother's Love...

Today has been fabulous. I really felt the Spirit in our Sacrament meeting at church today. And you know, that is the most important 15 minutes of the week. And boy, it was important. I've felt slightly disconnected from my Heavenly Father lately, and taking the Sacrament prayerfully felt really good. I really enjoyed my lesson in laurels class. I always do. Every single week without fail. Sacrament and YW's are my favorite part of church. =] Probably because YW's teaches lessons I apply RIGHT NOW in my life that are important to me in this moment. It's pretty sweet, you know?

I had something happen during the lesson. To me. I realized that I had done something I wish I hadn't, and it had hurt someone's trust in me, even though she didn't agree that it did. She said it was no big deal. And to her it probably wasn't, but I felt bad that I had hurt the trust when one of the things I really want is for people to know they can trust me. I apologized, and felt better after she said she forgave me, even though it wasn't a big deal. This happening put me in a spiritual/crying mood. I had a good discussion with my dad on the way home from church.

When I was on my way to bed, I gave my mom a hug and told her I wanted my mommy. So she went to a chair and let me sit in her lap. She held me and let me know she loved me. We sang a few primary duets, one specifically for mother and child about to go to sleep. I don't know if I talk about her enough, but I love my mom. She is my strength when I forget that I can do things. Sometimes I can't stand that she makes me do stuff, and then later I realize it was the best thing. She made me audition for The Nutcracker when I was so tired I didn't think I could do it. My mom is the best. 'Nuf said. I feel my Savior's love when I feel my mom's love. That's how it goes. =]
