NieNie Dialogues: We love you!

Dear Blog Readers,
This week for Family Home Evening we discussed this talk.
Our family wants to help every person young and
old feel the Saviors love-as we do.
I decide to utilize my blog to reach to you- wherever you are; in your homes, or at work, maybe you are checking this blog on your phone at the DMV. Perhaps you live overseas, maybe you are on the computer, or in-between loads of wash and babies napping, (like me), or maybe you are at school- wherever you are, my Little Nies, Mr. Nielson, and I want to share with you what we know.
We hope that this knowledge will help you today- or tomorrow or- when you are discouraged and sad, frightened or lonely.
We hope that after reading this you will feel the
Savior a little more in your hearts and lives.
I sat down with each child at the kitchen table last night.
I typed, they spoke.
Before we began, I asked them to imagine a boy or girl about their same age who lives in Iceland, Germany, Mexico, or back in New Jersey and hope that this message will reach you.
Word-for-word (capitalization too) here is what my children know
and what they want to share with you.

I will start with Claire.

{In the next few days I will share the others}

I am very excited to be able to express my feelings about this wonderful Gospel on my mom's blog.

I am extremely grateful for this opportunity, and I hope it helps someone.

I am so very grateful for the scriptures and what they do in my life.

I am grateful for a living prophet, Thomas S. Monson, and the twelve apostles.

I am grateful for the missionaries and my friends and family.

I am grateful for the Bishop in our ward. (who is also my uncle)

Above all, I am grateful for Heavenly Father and His son Jesus Christ.

I love this gospel and I am honored to be a member of

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints .

I am grateful I got to go to the temple and that I have a supportive family.
