I wasn't planning on attending Women's Conference this year because of Pete {no nursing mothers}. Last night a friend stopped by on her way to spend the night in Provo for Women's Conference and we started talking about how wonderful the conference is. Later that night I was telling Gregg how bummed I was that I couldn't attend, but that I knew having Pete would mean that it was my years to "miss out" on lots of things because I am nursing {which I am totally okay with, it's just still sometimes a bummer!}
Gregg said he thought I should go to at least the morning sessions. He said, "nurse Pete, leave me a bottle and we will be fine." I jumped at the chance! And it ended up working perfect, I nursed Pete and then went down to two classes, Gregg brought all the kids down to Provo at noon. I fed Pete, we ran some errands, I fed Pete again and then Gregg took the kids home for naps and I stayed for the last class.
There is something powerful and inspiring just being in a room with this many other women.
Sheri Dew's opening talk was entirely worth all the effort and juggling to be there.
Tiffany was on the service committee this year - she helped with all the blankets in the Smith Field House.
I went to be with her and spend more time together while listening to a talk about marriage and of course working on that quilt.
I wend the second day also but could only make it for the closing talks.
It was inspiring to be with family.
Fred, Marie, Ilene, mom, me, Tiff.
