jak and I returned to our local temple today. I really enjoyed this. It was almost like having a date. I haven’t been to the temple in over a year and it felt good to finally be able to go back. It’s been even longer since jak and I have been there as a couple. Why haven’t I been to the temple in over a year? One word: kids. Check this out! jak picked me up at Boy’s school at 8:41 AM. We arrived at the temple just after nine and weren’t out again until nearly twelve thirty. Previous to this, Boy was in school for half-days and I needed to meet his bus at 11:30. So, for the past more than a year I have been unable to visit the temple because I needed to be there for my son. Now Boy is in school full-time so I could actually afford the time it took to go and come back, plus we were able to celebrate with a little salad and pizza. It was a wonderful experience and I’m particularly grateful that my husband, jak was there to share it with me. I made another appointment for the same time next week and a back-up appointment for eleven o’clock instead, in case jak has a bad night and can’t make it. So, now I’m firmly committed to Temple Tuesdays. It feels great to be in there doing the work again.
Yes! Back to the Temple

Although you’d been away longer (I’m still grateful that Dad got me there in the past), I was glad to be back, too.
Hooray! Good for you both!
