Memorial Day weekend part 3
President Monson has said that we should teach our children about the holy temples and make it the spiritual goal of our families. He also said that when they touch the temple it will touch them.
So we did. On Sunday morning, despite the wind and the impending rain we ventured up the hill and walked around the Rexburg Temple grounds.
It's hard to say if the girls understood any of what we were trying to tell them. Eden was worried about the wind and Laura wanted to jump all over the stone ledges, but maybe just a little made it through. I guess that's the hope of so much of what we do as parents. But it did touch me to see my children's little hands against the white sparkling walls.
'Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? He that hath clean hands and a pure heart.'
