It’s interesting to me how the transition to “heavenly parents” as the main vernacular when referencing Heavenly Mother in any way started to take hold (at least from reading through this list) within the last 30-40 years. I appreciate the fact that “Heavenly Parents” unifies them in purpose and standing, but for some reason it makes it feel like it’s softening the mention of her existence. Maybe that’s just me?
1000000% agree. I want to fully celebrate and yet something inside me just can’t quite do it. Our language matters— and somehow She still feels.. invisible(?) even using Heavenly Parents.
