Childhood Memories
Do these pictures bring back memories for anyone else?
I can't be the only one who ventured inside a dryer at a young age...
Or stuck a sibling inside one!
I can even remember when there were some clothes in it pushing it around and around, rolling my little sisters around inside... I think they were having fun too!
It is the little things in life that I love to remember!
And I hope they are the things my children remember too!
Because they are making the memories of their childhood each and everyday!
Which reminds me... I have a little one who would like me to ignore the dishes and the computer and read him a couple more stories before nap!

All tuckered out!
After playing hard with the cousins...
And reading a few good books...
He just couldn't take it anymore!

An Easter Talk
I gave this talk in church on Easter Sunday. Getting ready for that talk was just what I needed right now. It is a bit long. I shaved the talk down a bit for time, but left all my original content here. Hopefully it will bless someone else as well. Love, Janelle
Good
afternoon brothers and sisters. Happy Easter! For those of you who
don’t know me, my name is Janelle Gratteau, and I hide out in nursery
with your beautiful children. I’m married to Steve and we have four
children: Byron, Taryn, Josie and little Manning. I’ve been asked to
speak today on the Life of Jesus Christ. I must admit that for some
reason this talk has been a difficult one for me to pull together. In
part I think because of the vast amount of information it could contain.
Just out of curiousity I did a search on lds.org with that title and I
got over 17,000 possibilites. Also though, as many talks do for those
who prepare them, this subject has become very personal to me over the
past three weeks. As I studied the life of Christ and read about the
last week of his life and the many teaching he shared in the New
Testament, and as I prayed and pondered I kept coming back to this: what
does the Life of Christ mean to me, right now?
