laundry

Today felt like heaven on earth, if but for an hour. I was outside hanging colorful laundry. I love colors. I love hanging laundry. I find it therapeutic. The physical movements are comfortable. The sunshine was glorious. The perfect cool wind ruffles the leaves and clothes. The breeze carried the scent of the clean laundry all around me. THe most heavenly part was the presence of my children. Fionna and Aiden were playing TOGETHER PEACEFULLY! "Fionna, do you want to push me around in my jeep?" "Yeah! Jeep!" "Fionna said jeep! You say jeep very well! Good job Fionna!" When she would fall he would run over and ask if she was ok and kiss the boo boo better. I am so proud of them. They often play together but today seemed especially angelic. I told Aiden that Heavenly Father loves him and is happy when he and his sister are playing nicely. I love those two. I am attempting to bring the gospel up frequently with the kids. The gospel is a way of life and is apart of all that I do. I need to make this clear to my children. My children are gifts from God. I need to treat them as such and it is my job to teach them about Him. I love my beautiful life.
