A look back.. (post from Michael)

Before heading to bed I took a look at my wife's blog which lead me to my old blog- a total of 4 posts. I've found blogs are for women, or for men who actually share their feelings, and definitely not for lazy people. I posted this close to the beginning of the program. I find it great to look back, remember, and push forward.

Lazy Sunday

I had a great weekend with my family. My Father in heaven truly has blessed me. I wouldn't say anything big happened , but I know I don't want to forget it. So, a blog seems like a good way to record these kinds of things. I took a night off of studying Saturday night (much needed). We went to McDonald's and let Haiden play. He had so much fun. It was the first time I have has a blast watching him. Usually I'll be playing with him, but we let him go at it alone this time. It was great. I loved it so much.He would climbed to the top, and then he just ran circles around the whole tube system. I loved sitting their with Heather, both of us enjoying the moment. I got to take a lot of time with him this weekend. I keep thinking about how old he's going to be when I get out of school (4 1/2 years). I want to make sure he know's he is special to me. I have to study so much, but I am going to make sure him and I both get our time together each day. What a blessing it is being a father. I felt the Spirit today very strongly during General Conference. My testimony has been strengthened once again. It feels great to know something with all my being! I know I love my wife and my son. I know I am going to get through this program. I know Jesus Christ lives. And, I know the meaning of life! What great things to know at any age.
