MY Family Proclamation

How do we celebrate our own family proclamation?  I have a guest poster that is another person dear to my heart (as have all of them been, but this one is even more special to me...), my baby sister.  She is not a baby anymore, but I waited a long time to get her, so she will always be my baby sister to me!  Here is HER family proclamation in pictures:

"...marriage between a man and woman is ordained of God..."


"...the family is central to the Creator's plan for the eternal destiny of His children..."


"...the first commandment that God gave to Adam and Eve pertained to their potential for parenthood as husband and wife..."


"...husband and wife have a solemn responsibility to love and care for each other and for their children..."


"...Parents have a sacred duty to rear their children in love and righteousness..."



"...Mothers are primarily responsible for the nurture of their children..."


My family is the most important thing in my life, and I am so grateful for all the doctrine we have to guide us in our adventure of parenthood. My husband is my best friend, and I don't know what I would do without him. Having the priesthood in my home is such a blessing.

My name is Seonaid. I am the mother to two beautiful, blonde, big blue eyed girls that keep me on my toes. My husband is the most handsome man in the world, is an awesome daddy, and works so hard to provide for our little family. I am the youngest of five kids by a long shot, and that fun experience has given me a bit of a backbone. Southern Alberta has been my home for 99% of my life, and I love it!
