A,B,C

I can't help but think of how blessed I am to have such beautiful girls. I am so blessed. I remember wanting a girl so badly when I was pregnant with Aubrie and who would have thought I would end up having three. But with such beauty comes great responsibility. Kind of like with "great powers come great responsibility" {Name that movie}. No really all jokes aside I have been thinking about what a HUGE responsibility that mitch and I have with having three girls. More so me. As their mother, I need to be on my game all the time, every day. And yet I find myself falling short all the time, every day. I read a talk given by Russell M Ballard that a sweet friend of mine posted on her facebook yesterday {Thanks Lisa B}, it was about Mothers and Daughters. Go here to read it. This talk was so great and it was exactly what I needed to hear too. It made me really think about how much I want my girls to make good choices and to be beautiful on the inside. I want their virtue to shine through as they go throughout this life. It is my responsibility to make sure this happens. I am their example that they need to follow. Therefore my choices and actions need to be good enough for them to follow. They are daughters of our Heavenly Father and I want them to remember that everyday. I want them to feel confident and loved. I want them to be outstanding role models for those around them, leaders. I know it is going to be hard for them and for me to get them through this life unscathed by Satan. Unfortunately life is hard and unfair. But I have faith that if I do everything that I can to show my girls the right path, they will follow. They will be tempted and may even fall at times but its not how many times you fall, but how many times you get back up. And I will be there right behind them to help them get back up. I am so very grateful for the gospel in my life. I know I would not be a very good mom if I didnt have it in my life. There are many days that I am not a good mom. I get angry, frustrated, sad and lose my patience with them. That is where the atonement of Jesus Christ comes in and I can get myself up again and try harder. I hope that I can be a good mother to them and to stay close with them. I made up what I call the ABC's of being a good mother. Follow your ABC's and you cant go wrong.

 A- Actions; be mindful of my actions. B-beauty; show my girls that beauty on the inside is what matters most. C-Christ; keep Christ in our home 

But I think my Aubrie, Brynley and Carly are the best ABC's.

Have you heard this song by Selena Gomez? Its awesome. Its my song to my girls. Especially when facing the ugliness of the world out there, when there will always be someone there to bring them down. I want them to remember "Who says?"
