Peace

That's the word that sums up my day.

When we lived in Sierra Vista, AZ the nearest temple was in Phoenix, a 3 hour drive each way... so a trip to the temple would be an all day event... I am sad to say we never made it. That makes it a long time since we have been to the temple.

Today, while Ally's was in school, and my mom watched Devin, Alex and I had that chance. We went to the Oquirrah Mountain Temple. I was stressed that I had forgotten everything, and wouldn't know what to do, but all of that melted away once I entered those sacred doors.

After the session as Alex and I sat quietly on a white sofa in the Celestial Room, I remembered the peace that can be found in no other place.

And I knew I was the luckiest woman in the world to be sitting beside my husband. We have been through rough patches, but after almost 10 years he is still mine... not just for now, but for forever. How blessed I feel to have been sealed to him, and to my babies. I look forward to the day when our little family will all be in that room together... how great shall be my joy...

Today has been a beautiful reminder of what it all is for.
