The Power of the Priesthood

Last week was an emotional week in so many ways. I was having an “I miss my mom week.” After several days of shedding tears I finally asked Troy to give me a blessing. I don’t know why I have such a hard time asking for a blessing, but I do. I guess it is...

Becky - Thanks for sharing. I'm the same way. Someone can be standing in my face offering to help and I'm not able to accept. Sometimes I feel like I don't want to bother other people. I appreciated your story.

Jerlyn - So glad you received a blessing and could feel the Savior's sweet love. The Lord loves you, Jodi. Mom loves you, too!

Becky - Is JD the one who went to endo school? If so, where is he practicing? Joel's job seems to be fizzling ... the economy in AZ is really hard. Joel talked to an endo dr Wed night who says he's practically gone out of business cause all the general dentists are doing all the root canals they can cause in this economy they certainly don't want to give away any patients &/or money.

Jerlyn - Love this post. Sweet little Brigham! Yep, I am a firm believer in FHE. I had fun on Friday, too!

April Fools

What a fun April Fool’s Day. The kids tried getting me all day. “Your shoes are are untied….April fools.” “Talmage is on fire….April fools!” I’m not quite sure where they came up with that one, but every joke brought more laughter and smiles.
Well, I decided I needed to get them back for all the jokes...
