Time-Out

You know time-out works for most kids...it also works for adults. I have sometimes put myself in time-out, like in the bathroom, when I couldn't hear myself think.

There is also a conference called "Time-Out for Women" that is a nice day all to yourself without any other interferences. I was able to go Jan. 22-23, with my good friend, which also happens to be my sister-in-law, Teresa, and her mom, DeAnn. It was a wonderful day and a half to be with them. Some of the songs and talks do get a little sappy at times, but you leave feeling happy and rejuvenated. (Michael McLean and Kenneth Cope were the sappiest--but still good.)

This year's theme is called "Sweet Assurances: the certainty that comes when you know life's truths." Here are a few of life's truths that I know:

• God Lives and loves me


• Jesus is my Savior and he lives


• I know the gospel is true and it was restored by Joseph Smith
  
• I love my husband dearly


• I love my children and know I was to become their mother


• I love being a wife and mother


• Repentance is a good thing--like when you make all of those mistakes raising your kids and being a wife.
  

There are lots more, but those are the few that I wanted to share. I told you that "Time-Out" was a little sappy, but then so am I.
