This is pretty much how my Sundays look at church these days. Miss Tallia nursing and napping. I remember once talking with a group of mamas at a church activity, back when Keagan was my only baby. I was a new mom and was just taking in as much knowledge as I could from veteran moms. They had so much knowledge and provided me with so much encouragement.
At the activity, one Mom shared how she sometimes wondered why she took the time to get her family to church if she spent most of the time in the Mother's room nursing a baby. I sat there and pondered her question, while one of those veteran moms spoke up. I'll never forget her reply. She said, "you go out of obedience because you know that is where you and your family need to be on Sundays".
That simple reply has stuck with me all these years. I now find myself back in the Mother's room, nursing and snuggling my sweet baby. I may not make it through a full sacrament meeting or hear a full Sunday school lesson, but I'm here. I'm present. I'm exactly where Heavenly Father wants me to be.
