Well only a few days until Christmas. I will be sad to see it go. We went up to Salt Lake City to see the lights tonight and as always..it was so beautiful. I love the cold air and the music and all the people. I love to see all the little kids and how they love to look at the lights. I remember as a kid driving around in our big ole Suburban (probably driving my parents nuts for fighting with my brother)looking at houses with lights and decorations. My kids have inherited my love for going on drives and they love the lights... I love the excitement they show and I always laugh because it seems the more outragous the houses look the better it is for them. Ah to be young and that innocent again. Today in church a woman that has health problems was telling me how Bryce was at her house the other day (he likes to visit her daily and has a schedule that he is very adament about) and he was asking her about her wedding ring. She said she had it because she was married to her husband and he gave it to her. Bryce then said to her "I would like to marry you but you are already married to Rudy" she said it was the sweetest thing because he didn't care what she looked like or that she was a little different. I really started to think how different the world would be if we could all be like that. I hope as a mother I can help my children to understand that different is good and we are all different inside and out. I know at Christmas we always focus on service..and it seems easy for a month with Christmas reminders everywhere and good lessons being taught about our Savior. I wish that there was that much focus the whole year. So my New Years resolution is to be more Christ like always.....and not get caught up in the "junk" of the world but to serve my heart out!!!!! I love you all and I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas....
