Despite waking up to the kids fighting this morning, today has been a wonderful day–peaceful (after the morning squabbles were over), relaxing and enjoyable. Brian and I were–for the most part–able to watch both sessions of conference without interruption! I’m not even kidding. I know there are lots of amazing mothers out there who find …
