Proud mommy moment!

I have to record this because honestly these moment are so few and far between.  At church on Sunday a man in the ward came up to me and told me this story.  He had been substitute teaching a few days before Mother's Day and had the kids in the class go around and have each one tell something they love about their mothers.  When it was Dorothy's turn she said "I love my mom because she teaches me about Heavenly Father" he wrote it down because he thought it was so sweet and the kind of thing a mother would be proud to hear.  I was overwhelmed that she said that and grateful that things I am *trying* to teach my children are beginning to sink in!
Me and my wonderful daughter!

The note that brought me to tears!

That is great! sometimes you wonder if they are learning and things like that just let you know that they Are IN FACT learning. Do I make Sense?
