As we sat in the chapel waiting for our turn, I looked over at my sweet daughter and whispered, "Can you believe you're actually inside the temple?" With watery eyes she looked at me and replied, "It doesn't seem real." For the last several years Emma has been looking forward to this day. Each time we would drive by the temple she would tell how much longer she would have to wait until she could go inside.
I am so grateful for the blessing and opportunity it was to be in the temple with my daughter. So many of the choices I have made in my life led my husband and me to that moment with or daughter. It was filled with tender and sweet emotions. I am so grateful for the knowledge that I have of the Plan of Salvation. I am grateful for the happiness it brings into my life. I am so grateful for the blessings of the temple. And I am immensely thankful for the opportunity I have to share those blessings with my children.
