It was made into a music video featuring David Archuleta, Peter Hollens, and The Piano Guys. I must say I was a bit skeptical at first because of all the hype surrounding the […]

I was doubly blessed this year to not only have my birthday fall on Thanksgiving but also have so much family gathered together. ALL of the Wadsworths, except for two, were here as well as my parents. It is quite a crowd. My dad was kind enough to take a giant Wadsworth family photo for […]

Eucharisteo – Thanksgiving

November 24, 2014 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} Leave a Comment

This time of year when grateful hearts turn into giving hands, my scripture study focuses on thanksgiving and the commandment we are given to be grateful. Gratitude is not just a commandment from the Lord, “Thou shalt thank the Lord thy God in all things.” (D&C 59:7) It is a commandment with a promise, “And […]

November 19, 2014 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} 2 Comments

God cannot give us a happiness and peace apart from Himself, because it is not there. There is no such thing. ~ C.S. Lewis | Print from CranialHiccups.com

November 17, 2014 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} 2 Comments

Yesterday morning while everyone else was getting ready for church I played with my girls’ hair.  They all have long(ish) hair, though some have stick straight hair while a couple inherited some very ringlet curly hair.

Grateful in any Circumstance

November 10, 2014 by Montserrat {Cranial Hiccups} 4 Comments

Contentment is not the fulfillment of what you want, but the realization of what you already have.

Years ago my sister-in-law stitched a saying that I love, It goes along with one of my favorite scriptures, “Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.” (Philippians 4:11) We have been blessed with so much!
