There are some Sundays I feel like I am still sitting with a bunch of little kids that can't be quiet. But as I sat with my kids on Sunday and watched as Sally was having her baby blessed. Seeing all the Rice kids growing up and having babies. The reality of wow that will be us in not too long. I looked at my kids sitting on the bench with me and an overwhelming feeling of peace and joy came across me. I leaned over to Sebastian and said that will be us before long.. He just laughed at me. Well as the meeting went on Malcolm and Eve got up to give their testimony. Can I just say Malcolm blew me away listening to his testimony of the gospel and how grown up he sounded. Then Eve got up and was so honest about her struggle to gain a testimony and how she did it. I was in tears.
When they finished they came back and passed a note to the rest of us including Grandma saying "YOUR TURN"! Before I knew it the other three were up there giving their testimony. A momma couldn't be prouder. They kept looking at me to get up. I have this overwhelming issue with getting up in front of people. I can't breathe etc. I couldn't do it. I felt so bad. I told them later what the deal was and shared my testimony then. I still wish I could have gotten up in Sacrament meeting.
I have been so blessed with amazing kids.
