Scary Mommy Says Don't Say "Can't You Just."

Scary Mommy tells the worse phrase to use with an already busy mother.  That phrase is "Can't you just."  Being a man, and always wanting to give advise, this is something I say--often.  Not only to my wife, but to other family members.  I don't think I use it outside the family at all; but it is a manipulative phrase as I try to get my way.  Normally, it is used as a phrase to maybe give ideas and enlighten someone else.  However, if someone's plate is already overloaded, it really isn't helpful.  Read the blog post and tell me what you think.

The Sealing Power, Church Video

This is the story of Elizabeth and Brady Powell.  Brady was killed at the Pentagon on 9-11.  Elizabeth tells their story of temple marriage.  This makes me cry.  I know the sealing power is real.  It has been restored to the Earth for our benefit.  It is an expression of eternal love.  This clip tells this story in a beautiful fashion.
When I think of Sheri's and my first son, I realize that even though we did not hold him in this life, some day we will hold him, and love him, and he will love us, because of this power, I am eternally grateful.
