The Value of Good Books

Seek ye out of the best books words of wisdom
Doctrine and Covenants 88:118

Good Books are as friends, willing to give to us if we are willing to make a little effort.
Gordon B. Hinckley - Stand a Little Taller

I LOVE books! And I don't spend all my time on romance novels as some might think :o)
I'm reading quite a few books right now :
Covenant Hearts, marriage and the joy of human love, by Bruce C Hafen
Mothering with Spiritual Power, by Debra Sansing Woods
Making Chrildren Mind without Loosing Yours, by Dr. Kevin Leman
and
The Book of Mormon

Remember the challenge to read it? that's a few years back now... well I'm still working on it, I'll be reading Heleman 9 tonight.

Books are such a part of my life, and I try to help my girls love books too. And I must not be too far off on that, as they want us to read them books each night before bed. And many times when they aren't reading to fall asleep yet they will sit and look in their books.
Many lights when I've gone to turn out the light on my way to bed, I find them asleep surrounded by books, not to mention the books they are laying on top of.

Let's seek out the GOOD books!
Happy Sabbath

Small and Simple Things

I've started reading a little book of quotes That I got for Christmas from my mom. It is Marjorie Pay Hinkley's book Small and Simple Things.
And I would like to share with you, my favorites as I come across them

"Who Knows but that something wonderful may happen today. Have Faith that it will. After all, every morning is a chance at a new day"

Let us seize the day, let's not linger on the things we didn't get done yesterday. Let's enjoy the beauty of the sunlight and the shadows playing across the ground. Let's take a chance to just enjoy our children.
Let's not wait for the wonderful to happen. Let US make it happen!

Have a wonderful Sabbath day!
