One of my favorite things about living in Missouri is being asked about Utah and Mormons when I tell people where I'm from. A few weeks ago, I had the privilege of being the first Mormon my hairstylist had ever met. ;) We talked about the fundamental truths of the gospel, temples, and even more specifically, sealings. As I was telling her about how we believe in being married for time and eternity, she got goosebumps all over and had tears in her eyes.
"That's so sweet!" she kept saying over and over.
And I couldn't help but emphatically agree with her. It is sweet. And such a blessing.
Gave me goosebumps too! Love that picture of you, Lex :)
ReplyDeleteSUCH an incredible blessing. I'm the biggest baby ever, and I often get goose bumps and tears in my eyes when I look at my husband and am reminded of the eternal journey we're on together.
ReplyDeleteGood job talking to people about being LDS! Being sealed to our families is an amazing thing! You are just too cute!
ReplyDeleteIt's the greatest thing. My favorite part of the gospel. It feels even better with babies. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great opportunity to bear your testimony of eternal families and temples to her! :)

I love this! I'm sure living outside of Utah, you have a lot more missionary experiences like that!

Temples rock my world. I'm so thankful for them and the blessings we can receive from them.
