9.15

Thursday.  Let me start out by saying that I had to think for a minute about how to access my blog account... I have definately been MIA.  Missing out on blogging (writing in my journal), amidst all the action of the Heflin household.  Last night as I waited for Riley at the activity bus stop, I was leafing through a NEW ERA magazine.  The page I glanced at was an old talk given by President Erying, entitled "O Remember, Remember" from the October 2007 General Conference.  This was THE talk that inspired me to start blogging back in 2007.  As I read the article, it felt as though I was getting a big ol' 2x4 across the head!! (Thanks Bro. Salmond, seminary days!:)   I do want to remember the wonderful blessings I have in my life, for there are so many!  I want my children to be able to look back and know that we were a normal, but very happy family growing up.  I want to document memories to pass on to their children.  It HAS to become a priority!!

 President Eyring said, "When our children were very small, I started to write down a few things about what happened every day.  I never missed a day no matter how tired I was or how early I would have to start the next day. ... I would ponder this question, "Have I seen HIS hand in my life?"

Priorities... are a funny thing.  I will be working on it! :)
