Men's Sense of Time

I've come to realize,

When a man says "I'll be home in 2 minutes". He means 10 minutes.

When a man says "I'll be there in 10 minutes". He means half an hour.

When a man says "I'm taking out the garbage, I'll be right back". He means, "I had every intention of coming right back but I ran into a neighbor and ended up having an hour-long conversation".

By the way- I really do love my husband. He's just easily distracted...

My Favorite Part of Conference

As always, conference was wonderful, and I was touched by so many things that were said. My favorite talks were President Monson's talk about "Doing something good in the world today", and President Eyring's talk about love:

Our way of life, hour by hour, must be filled with the love of God and love for others...It is love of God that will lead us to keep His commandments. And love of others is at the heart of our capacity to obey Him."

Baby Hemingway started jumping around.

Some days it's easy to remember why I wanted to do this again.
