I've come to the realization that I have to make a decision very, very soon. I can't stay in this place of self-doubt much longer. As I was putting my little girl to bed just now, she said, "Mommy, are we Latter-day saints?" When I told her no, she informed me that her primary teacher was talking today about how wonderful it is to be LDS. It suddenly hit me that I need to make a decision very soon for her sake. My daughter is my life and I don't want her to have to feel hurt over my indecision. I don't want to start taking her to church regularly and then pull her out after I finally come to a conclusion, if that conclusion is negative. So it looks like I'm going to be up late this week doing a lot of reading. No missionary meetings this week--I've heard enough of them for now. I picked up Fawn Brodie's book from a local bookstore this afternoon, so hopefully that will help me to understand the real Joseph Smith.
