It takes a Family

I am not sure why, but someone needs to listen to/ read this lecture. Maybe it's you. I can't go to sleep until I post this.

The lecture is titled "It takes a Family to Raise a Village: The Significance of the Family for the Free Society" by Jennifer Roback Morse.

It is very interesting and I say, "Amen." If you watch the video, it lasts about 37 minutes. You can also download the audio to you IPOD and listen while you work or print out the 23 pages and read them as you have time. In my opinion, it is well worth the effort.

Anyway, make the effort. I'd love to hear your thoughts.

I am grateful for the Gospel and the emphasis we place on the family. I have a strong testimony of the work that I am doing in my home. I know that I can impact the world more by mothering my own children than I possibly could in the work force. This phase of life is so very short, there will be time for other things later. I claim my right to enjoy, raise, and nurture my children, be the helpmeet my husband needs, gain a liber education, and be who God sent me here to be.

Good night. :)
