iCreate: Gratitude Appreciation Month: Day 16

"The desire to create is one of the deepest yearnings of the human soul. No matter our talents, education, backgrounds or abilities, we each have an inherent wish to create something that did not exist before. Everyone can create. You don’t need money, position, or influence in order to create something of substance or beauty. You might say, I am not the creative type. If that is how you feel, think again. Creation is your opportunity in this life….. Start small. Creativity does not require a brush, a pen, or the keys of a piano. Don’t let the voice of critics paralyze you. You will make the World a better place. Improve, beautify, extend, smile, cultivate, develop, create."

~President Dieter F. Uchtdorf

Gratitude Appreciation Month: Day 16

I asked Nathan tonight what his favorite thing about today was. Of all the things...friend's house twice, stuff with dad, movie with pillows and blankets, favorite dinner...he said, "Playing blocks with you."

Today I am thankful for the simple reminders in life to what things are really the most important.
