Life would be much better if everyday was Sunday

Think about this, everyday is Sunday! If you would have asked me a year or two ago what my favorite day was, I would probably have said Saturday. Why? This is simple, it was a day off of work, and I had the following day off too! Do not get me wrong, I still think Saturday is great, but more and more Sunday is becoming my favorite day of the week. I will tell you why. I go to sleep the night before with my loving husband, then awake refreshed (most of the time). My awakening is usually from Mat pattering into the room saying, "Mama, Dada, it's time to get up!" So we wake up and head downstairs for breakfast. Most of the time it is a simple breakfast, but every now and then we feel fancy and we bust out the waffle-maker. Then we get ready for church. Now typically it would take me like 10 minutes, but it tends to take like an hour now. This is due to Mat. Usually I have to chase him around getting him to look all spiffy. Just for him to look unspiffy by the time we reach the chapel door. That is neither here nor there though. Onward with why Sunday is now my favorite day. So then we have church for three hours. Yes folks, three hours. I used to not be one who loved church, or even liked going to church. Now, I do, I really enjoy going to church. For sacrament, we sit next to our family, and let the kids play quietly (or shush them the entire time). Then we have a young adults scripture class. Then I teach Young Women's or Relief Society. It really is great, and I love the callings I have been given. I have actually learned alot from them. When you think about it, Sunday has the best way to start the day. A day not rushed, but with family and the Spirit for the better part of the morning. It truly is amazing.
