“Let us not live a life … that would bring regret. … It is not going to matter very much how much money you made, what kind of a house you lived in, what kind of a car you drove, the size of your bank account—any of those things. What is going to matter is that dear woman who has walked with you side by side as your companion through all of the years of life and those children and grandchildren and great-grandchildren and their faithfulness and their looking to you … with respect and love and deference and kindness.”
Gordon B. Hinckley, “Inspirational Thoughts,” Liahona, Mar. 2006, 3–4

I love this Family Gem. It is so true. Here we are 2 years away from doc.'s wages and my boys and my girl are outside hauling loads and loads of firewood to the house to heat us for the winter; watching my husband wielding a chain saw falling trees. No matter how much is in our account (speaking of years to come...not now:), nothing beats working together as a family for a great purpose.
...and speaking of good people to walk beside, check out the post about by honey and his boy...
