General Conference

I posted this picture on Instagram during General Conference with the caption, "Is it Christmas or is it General Conference?" A friend of mine commented and said "It is Mormon Christmas!" and I couldn't agree more. 

 While we were listening it occurred to me that during last Octobers General Conference Brian and I were praying hard to know if there was another baby for our family. There was a specific talk on children that we felt was a direct answer to our fasts and prayers. What a blessing it is in our lives to hear from living prophets the things that our loving Father in Heaven would have us know. He knew our hearts and the concerns we had. He prepared this talk for us, and in doing so eased our concerns and reminded us of His great plan.

Today, a year later, we are enjoying the confirmation to our year long prayers to know what was right for our family. We listened as we loved on this beautiful baby girl who Brian and I only dreamed about in July 2011 while visiting the temple we were sealed in. We are so blessed to have the gospel in our lives. It truly answers life's questions of where we came from, what we are doing here, and where we are going.
