I love conference weekend. Saturday is a bit harder because there are always other things going on as well. It's harder to take the day "off." I missed Elder Uchtdorf's talk yesterday while taking Chris to his district orchestra audition--and I've heard it was wonderful. I'll try to watch it today. (Again...I love DVR!)
But even when there are places to go and rooms to vacuum, the spirit of General Conference fills the house both days. It makes for a pleasant day no matter what else is going on. Of the talks I heard yesterday, I think Elder Bednar's spoke to me the most. His thoughts on starting our day with prayer hit home with me. Perhaps my days would go even better if I remembered to do that.
I just love the spirit of Conference. I love the spirit that it brings to my home and to my children. Although they have a hard time watching the entire two hours, they are at least quiet for the first hour--almost an hour and a half! I think what I love most about Conference is that it gives me hope. It reminds me of who I can be and who I am. I am a daughter of God. Heavenly Father loves me and wants what's best for me. And he's shown me how to have joy. It is a true blessing to be a member of this Church.
