We talked about goals, plans, thoughts, feelings, and generally,
our excitement about reading this fantastic book and the testimony
of the Savior's life and ministry on the earth.

follow the Lord even when it's difficult,
and to dedicate our lives to learning more about the
Savior during our family study together.
(This is the first year we all have a phone to read our scriptures on.)
Then, I made chocolate chip cookies.
