No matter where we live, what we look like, or what we believe, all of us are children of Heavenly Parents who love us perfectly. Our Heavenly Parents gave us the gift of earthly families to help us grow and become like Them. Families are the best school for learning how to love, forgive, cooperate, pray, create, work, play, and figure out how to be with each other forever. Depicting the deep joys as well as the messy realities of family life, this book will inspire you and those you love to practice building an eternal family every day.

I am so excited about this beautiful book, and just bought twenty copies to share with people I love. The artwork is stunning and fresh, and the message of the book warms my soul: we have Heavenly Parents, Heavenly Father and Heavenly Mother, in whose image we are created, and who have provided a plan, an earth, and a model for us to hold family councils, serve one another in families, and grow up in God no matter what form our personal family may take. Filled with powerful and tender quotations from general authorities about these concepts, this book will help the children of the Church to grow up with a natural understanding of these important truths, and will help the adults of the Church celebrate them with joyful hearts. Great questions to help spark wonderful discussions with children and grandchildren. I feel like I have been waiting all my life for just such a book as this.
