Trust your father. He is not perfect, but he loves you and would never do anything he didn't think was in your best interest. So talk to him. Share your thoughts and feelings, your dreams and your fears. The more he knows about your life, the better chance he has to understand your concerns and to give you good counsel.

Friends and family are vitally important for an individual who is struggling to return to the gospel path. Those around such a person must refrain from judging. They must do all they can to show love.

If your dream requires patience, give it.

The joy of motherhood comes in moments. ... Families need unstructured time when relationships can deepen and real parenting can take place. Take time to listen, to laugh, and to play together.

Remove any of your fear with faith. Trust the power of God to guide you.

The important questions focus on what matters most-Heavenly Father's plan and the Savior's Atonement.

What matters most is what lasts the longest and families are forever.
