Eric - a smiling machine

I love this stage when babies are so ready and willing to give you their little grins. It just melts your heart when they give you those sweet smiles. Yup, Eric has got his momma hooked.

We had a good weekend, I enjoyed watching conference and in between sessions we made forays outdoors as the weather was fantastic. I feel motivated to be the best I can be and be more service focused in the next six months. I think it is so easy to get wrapped up in your own life, issues and troubles that you don't spend the time actively looking for ways to help others. I know that I haven't been so good at that since I have had children. You spend so much of your time focusing on others as it is that it is easy to think "I am too busy to help other people or do something for someone." But if not me than who? So that is my challenge to myself, to "load up my handcart and set out to find the needy" as one of the general authorities said.
