As most of you know, I am the primary president in our ward at church. That is, I work with all the kids! Today we had our primary program and it couldn't have gone better. Nothing invites the spirit faster than a song and hearing children sing is even better. My particular favorite song this year is "If The Savior Stood Beside Me." I still get teary eyed when I hear the song and remember what it felt like when I heard it the first time. For those of you who haven't heard it, find a primary song CD asap. You will want it for keeps!

As I have reflected on our program today and the spirit that was felt in that room, I thought about what Christ would say or do if He were here to share a message with our kids. I chose the image above because this is how I imagine He would look. He has such great love for our children. I imagine He would bring each child into His arms the way you see Him in this picture. (maybe a little differently with the bigger kids!)

Anyway, this post isn't really anything special. More of a poorly written reflection of my appreciation for my calling in the primary and Christ's love for His children, including myself.

To those of you reading this who have kids in our ward, Thank you so much for all that you do to teach them about the gospel. I have truly grown as a mother, a woman, and as a person because of the opportunity I have had to work with your kids. Thank you for that.
