Swaddling

Today I am grateful for several things.

1. I am grateful for the Sacrament. I am grateful that I was able to go to church for five minutes to take the sacrament. (The Friendly Hero is still sick and we didn't want to get anyone else sick.)

2. Power. There was an accident yesterday. Someone decided to hit a power pole right outside of our apartment complex. We were without power from 2:30 until 11:20pm. It hits home how wonderful electricity is and how dependent we are on it. We spent the afternoon playing with flashlights and a camping lantern.

3. Preparedness. Our Afternoon wasn't awful and we were just fine, because I had followed the commandments of the Prophet and was prepared. I am grateful for my faithfulness in being prepared. (I sound like it's all about me, but I am truly grateful for the guidance.)

4. Swaddling. The Peaceful Hero loves to be swaddled. He practically falls asleep once we swaddle him. I think he loves it so much because there was no room in my tummy for him. When we wrap him tight, he feels like he did his whole womb experience.

5. Brothers. They are adorable and love each other. The Friendly Hero asks to be swaddled every time I swaddle The Peaceful Hero. They are so cute together.
Love.
6. Sleep. I am grateful for all the sleep that I get. I am a much nicer person when I get enough sleep.
