Families are forever

There's this song I learned in church when I was a child that I love to this day. 

It's called 'Families Can Be Together Forever'
It's been on my mind a lot lately.

Here are the lyrics

1. I have a fam’ly here on earth.
They are so good to me.
I want to share my life with them through all eternity.

[Chorus]
Fam’lies can be together forever
Through Heav’nly Father’s plan.
I always want to be with my own family,
And the Lord has shown me how I can.
The Lord has shown me how I can.

2. While I am in my early years,
I’ll prepare most carefully,
So I can marry in God’s temple for eternity.

I was born and raised in a family that were members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.  It's a christian religion and the members of the congregation are known as Latter-Day Saints, LDS for short, or more commonly known as 'Mormons'.

During my life I struggled with different things as everyone does.  There came a time where religion wasn't important to me.  I didn't want to go to church or do church things.  Why? I have no idea because my faith has never waivered.  I think I was just being an obnoxious teenager.

Anyway, when I was 19 I met this awesome guy that was also Mormon and we started dating.  I knew he was 'the one' from the moment I met him. 

We met in October, were engaged in February and married by the end of July.  Jared and I were sealed for time and all eternity in the San Diego Temple.  It's a gorgeous temple!

  6 years later we've been blessed with the cutest little booger on the planet.

I'm so thankful that I met Jared and that he was worthy to take me to the temple.  I love knowing that I'll be with them for the rest of forever as long as I live a worthy life.  I love knowing that we'll get to be with Michael again.  The thing I love the very most about my religion is that families are the core.  There is nothing in this world more important than family!
