(When I have the time, Monday will be my day to share thoughts on Motherhood. I think I'll start by going back to the beginning of being a first time mom and work forward.)

As I have loved you.
Brie was having a hard time the other day. She was really
fussy and I just couldn't seem to help her out. I finally decided it was time
for a chage of scenery and a "field trip" up to visit grandpa and
grandma. As I walked into my parents' room the song, "Love One
Another" started playing.
As I have loved you, love one another.
This new commandment: love one another.
By this shall men know ye are my disciples,
if ye have love one for another.
As I listened to the words and held Brie I started to tear
up, thinking of the love that the Savior has shown me, and the fact that His
love is endless, even on my "fussy" days. I was grateful for the
gentle reminder to continue loving my little daughter, especially in that
moment when I felt frazzled and ineffective as a mother. How grateful I am for
inspiring music and for the example of One who has paved the way.
