Divorce

Divorce is terrible and sad. This makes me so grateful for the church because even though divorce is still present within the church but its a lot harder I think.
I've been sealed in the temple with my husband and its a flood of relief to think that I will have my buddy forever.
When we talked about a spouse passing away. I just look at how complex that all is but I'm sure our Father in Heaven sees a whole lot more than what we can see and understand what is going on. I do not know how its going to all work out and I could attempt to try but I think that would put me in a position that probably isn't correct. I just like to view things gospel related that pertain to me. Its hard to go beyond and try to solve everyone's situation.

I wish all of you a Merry Christmas.

Parenting

I found it really interesting on how we talked about Parenting with adolescents. Watching that movie clip with the mother and her son who is struggling with a problem with a girl he likes. It kind of shocked me on how easy it is to blow off a problem that you can clearly see. I think a lot of it is because parents do not know how to properly act towards their teenagers.

I SOOO want to change what myself. I want to be that parent who focuses on her children and takes the time to problem solve with my teenage son/ daughter. Its really true that it only takes 2 minutes. Only two minutes and it makes a huge impact on their lives.

I plan to start this now. I'm not a parent but I am married and I'm going to take a more active stance with my husband because that will help prepare myself for when I do have children.
