Monday again! We have an extra busy week coming. B & S leave tomorrow to go support J as his team gets to play for the National Championships! Yea J! I wrote about his ankle miracle here, he is doing great and is so excited to get to help carry his team... we all hope to the championships! Yea!
L gets to perform in the Salt Lake Tabernacle on Friday. I have made arrangements for my little ones in SLC and look forward to supporting her! She is singing with a fabulous director that she loves! M.Webb has taught her so much about life... creating happiness! I am grateful for a beautiful daughter!
Friday and Saturday of this week C is competing with the DSU team in mountain biking. He is really excited for this first college level race! I can't support both at the same time, but will return home early on Saturday to cheer him across the finish line on Saturday. He is so awesome!
For FHE tonight, we need to help S with his Family Life Merit Badge. I believe it ties right into our theme of Respect for the month! We will be having the discussions outlined (see the Family Life Merit Badge workbook here).
Today J called home to check in (love him that he cares and calls!) and shared this thought shared with him by his coach this week:
“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

Love that! "Powerful Beyond Measure!" Ties right into the "Unspeakable Grandeur" that I wrote about here and have been teaching all year in primary! I Am A Child of God and so are YOU!
As I wonder about how to prepare missionaries, about how to teach little ones to read and spell and do math.... as we struggle from day to day with those seemingly mundane duties repeated over and over, oh to realize that every moment is powerful beyond measure! I am grateful for precious moments today! Off to make the most of them and finish reading lessons with a couple more!
Indeed the power of Family is something of "Unspeakable Grandeur, Powerful Beyond Measure!"
