He talked about obedience and I love hearing stories of when he was a child. I love hearing that he was a normal kid that got in trouble and didn't always do the right thing (like burn up a bunch of weeds and let it get out of control) and yet he still ended up being the amazing man he is.<br /><br />We've adopted Becca's crepe recipe as ours and Abby loves them. My favorite way to eat them is with Nutella and banana inside and dutch honey on the outside.

The day after Conference I had already downloaded it and listened to it two more times! To have someone (not just "someone," ELDER HOLLAND!) _finally_ tell me its ok that I sometimes have doubts and concerns about the Church, instead of making me feel like I must be an apostate devilspawn for questioning, was earth-shattering for me. And effective. Just that little bit of validation flooded my whole heart with the reassurance of all the Gospel aspects in which my faith IS strong. <br /><br />Now, if only I could have been eating CREPES while I listened...then it would have been a spiritually AND physically transcendent experience!

"Our daily contributions do matter because of Whose we are". Plus any talk that talks about vacuuming till your vacumm burns up is pretty cool (vacuuming is my favorite household job ever!)<br />The only crepes I have ever had were Becca's Best Book Club Crepes so I can say without a doubt that they were the BEST! I liked the strawberry/whipped cream combo and also the Nutella. I really liked the picture of Calvin eating Nutella from the jar, but I probably won't be eating Nutella at the Renfroe's house for awhile.

My favorite talk? "Of Regrets and Resolutions" by Elder Dieter F. Uchtdorf, but is it really fair to choose just one favorite? They were all so comforting, enlightening, and encouraging - as always. Favorite musical number - a goosebumps-giving arrangement of "Love One Another" by the men's choir during the priesthood session.<br /><br />My favorite way to eat them is with LOTS of fresh berries and REAL whipped cream. My husband and children like to add powdered sugar and maple syrup for the perfect sugar high...No matter the (sickeningly sweet) combo, these crepes are the perfect addition to our 2 most favorite weekends of the year!!!Corinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9023934564296426652.post-87701778438781749982012-10-07T20:40:33.978-06:002012-10-07T20:40:33.978-06:00I love you and your crepes!!!!!!

I'm excited to try this recipe. I would really love to master crepe-making, because I am basically always looking for an excuse to eat more Nutella.<br /><br />Speaking of conference, I was really touched this April by Ronald Rasband's talk "Special Lessons," which he focused on his little nephew Paxton, who was born with a rare chromosomal deletion, a genetic disorder that keeps him close to the hospital and requires a high amount of attention and worry from his parents.<br /><br />David is taking a class right now about studies in disabilities, and we have had a lot of discussions at home about the worth of souls as a result. When we were pregnant with Hollie and the doctor asked us if we wanted to take a blood test to see our baby might have a disorder that would qualify her for a "mercy abortion," David and I were really humbled and sad. We have a nephew with spina bifida--one of the disabilities that many parents choose to abort their babies to avoid. We can't imagine our family without Harris; he is hilarious, so loving, and loves his life and his family. I just want to post this quotation from Rasband's talk about his meditations on getting to know his grandson:<br /><br />"I was reminded of a familiar missionary scripture that took on new meaning: 'Remember the worth of souls is great in the sight of God.'<br /><br />"I wept as I pondered the limitless love our Heavenly Father and His Beloved Son, Jesus Christ, have for each one of us, while learning in a powerful way what the worth of a soul is, both physically and spiritually, to God."<br /><br />The rest of the talk is found here: http://www.lds.org/general-conference/2012/04/special-lessons?lang=engEmily Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04269841451462164578noreply@blogger.com
