Doing good brings happiness.

Don't have to do too much. I got the thought that I should tell my sister-in-law that I loved her. We're probably the least closest out of all the sibs - don't know her really really well - but I still care for her. So I just jotted off the e-mail saying "I love you". Yes, her response was that she really needed that. I even got brave and told her that I was sometimes jealous of her for the blessings that she has in her life - husband with a strong love for her and for his strength in the gospel, etc. I hope that she took that one okay. We all need to remember the blessings that we do have. I have kids - easily - she doesn't. I know I don't appreciate them the way she would since she's got that trial right now. And I said that I guess we all just think of what others have and that we really would choose to have our problems when we compare those to others' trials. Life's not easy - but we are so blessed and it is good. I do love her. It made me feel good to let her know that. I hope that we can be closer one day. I love my family. My sibs all chose wonderful spouses. WOW!!!!!!!!!! Lucky me!
