It is amazing to me what a blessing Emma has been in our lives already. I thought I'd take some time while I'm already emotional and list many of the blessings that have come into our lives because of Emma.
- more fervent prayers
- the peace and comfort of the Savior in our lives
- greater love for our children
- renewed dedication to attend the temple more often
- overwhelming love and support of those around us - I wish I could verbally express how much it amazes me how many people are there for us whenever, whatever, however
- greater love and appreciation for those who support us
- chances to share the message of eternal families with others
- increased scripture study
- humility
- stronger desire to serve those around us
- gratefulness for the plan of Salvation and eternal families
- greater closeness to the Savior
- increased understanding of the Lord's hand in our lives
- new love and admiration for my dear husband
- more empathy towards others
- love - anywhere and everywhere
I know this isn't a comprehensive list. But I am sometimes overwhelmed when I stop to think what a huge blessing Emma has already been in our lives. I am so grateful for her and I pray that the Lord will let her be a part of our lives for longer still.
