Families Can Be Together Forever



Josh, Jaden and I got sealed in the Salt Lake Temple on April 26th, 2009. That day was so amazing. It felt rushed, but everything you learn is so powerful. We haven't had a chance to go back yet, but I want to so badly. I told Josh I want to learn. I feel like since I graduated, I'm just sitting here, not progressing (ex: math, science, new hobby...etc.) Well, after going to the temple I've realized that I will learn a LOT if I keep going there. I think there will always be new things to learn and ponder in the temple. My family is now eternal. For that, I am eternally grateful to our Savior, and for the sacrifice he made for us. I think going to the temple to get sealed makes our Savior's sacrifice that much more meaningful. Yes, most members of the church are born under the covenant, but it's not something you experience and have a memory of. I love my husband more than anything in this life. Our son Jaden is growing so fast and babbling so much. I wonder what he would tell us if he could talk. We have a picture of the Nauvoo Temple in our room above our bed. When we lay Jaden on our bed, he'll stare at that picture. It could just be that it's a contrast against the wall, but Josh and I like to think it's something more than that.
