Cute Cousins!

Chloe just LOVED her cousin Emma. Everytime she came into the room Chloe would shake with excitement. I don' t think Emma really noticed Chloe too much at first but within a couple of days she started to play with her more and she called her "Cokey" which was SOOO CUTE! We sure miss Amy and her girls!

THE FAMILY
A PROClAMATION TO THE WORLD

WE, THE FIRST PRESIDENCY and the Council of
the Twelve Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ
of Latter-day Saints, solemnly proclaim that marriage
between a man and a woman is ordained of God
and that the family is central to the Creator’s plan
for the eternal destiny of His children.
ALL HUMAN BEINGS—maleandfemale—are created
in the image of God. Each is a beloved spirit son or
daughter of heavenly parents, and, as such, each
has a divine nature and destiny. Gender is an
essential characteristic of individual premortal,
mortal, and eternal identity and purpose.
IN THE PREMORTAL REALM, spirit sons and
daughters knew and worshiped God as their
Eternal Father and accepted His plan by which His
children could obtain a physical body and gain
earthly experience to progress toward perfection
and ultimately realize his or her divine destiny as
an heir of eternal life. The divine plan of happiness
enables family relationships to be perpetuated
beyond the grave. Sacred ordinances and covenants
available in holy temples make it possible
for individuals to return to the presence of God
and for families to be united eternally.
THE FIRST COMMANDMENT that God gave to
Adam and Eve pertained to their potential for
parenthood as husband and wife. We declare
that God’s commandment for His children to
multiply and replenish the earth remains in force.
We further declare that God has commanded that
the sacred powers of procreation are to be employed
only between man and woman, lawfully
wedded as husband and wife.
WE DECLARE the means by which mortal life
is created to be divinely appointed. We affirm the
sanctity of life and of its importance in God’s
eternal plan.
HUSBAND AND WIFE have a solemn responsibility
to love and care for each other and for their
children. “Children are an heritage of the Lord”
(Psalms 127:3). Parents have a sacred duty to rear
their children in love and righteousness, to provide
for their physical and spiritual needs, to teach them
to love and serve one another, to observe the
commandments of God and to be law-abiding
citizens wherever they live. Husbands and wives—
mothers and fathers—will be held accountable
before God for the discharge of these obligations.
THE FAMILY is ordained of God. Marriage between
man and woman is essential to His eternal plan.
Children are entitled to birth within the bonds of
matrimony, and to be reared by a father and a mother
who honor marital vows with complete fidelity.
Happiness in family life is most likely to be
achieved when founded upon the teachings of the
Lord Jesus Christ. Successful marriages and families
are established and maintained on principles
of faith, prayer, repentance, forgiveness, respect,
love, compassion, work, and wholesome recreational
activities. By divine design, fathers are to
preside over their families in love and righteousness
and are responsible to provide the necessities
of life and protection for their families. Mothers are
primarily responsible for the nurture of their children.
In these sacred responsibilities, fathers and
mothers are obligated to help one another as equal
partners. Disability, death, or other circumstances
may necessitate individual adaptation. Extended
families should lend support when needed.
WE WARN that individuals who violate covenants
of chastity, who abuse spouse or offspring, or who
fail to fulfill family responsibilities will one day
stand accountable before God. Further, we warn
that the disintegration of the family will bring upon
individuals, communities, and nations the calamities
foretold by ancient and modern prophets.
WE CALL UPON responsible citizens and officers
of government everywhere to promote those
measures designed to maintain and strengthen
the family as the fundamental unit of society.
