Jesus Christ, Examplar
John 10:27
My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:
Book of Mormon
Alma 17:1-17
New Testament "Come Follow Me"
Matthew 26:69-75; Mark 14:66-72; Luke 22:31-38, 54-62; John 18:15-27
General Conference
Look Unto Jesus Christ
Kim B. Clark
"When the Lord calls the elders in Israel to 'look unto me in every thought' and 'behold the wounds' in His resurrected body, it is a call to turn away from sin and the world and to turn to Him and love and obey Him. It is a call to teach His doctrine and do His work in His way. It is, therefore, a call to trust Him completely, surrender our will and yield our hearts to Him, and through His redeeming power become like Him."
There is another quote in Elder Bednar's talk that I want to share because I love it so much:
"Knowing that the gospel is true is the essence of a testimony.
Consistently being true to the gospel is the essence of conversion."
I slept in until after 7 this morning. Jason and his family were already gone. I guess the temple sealing was quite early.
I studied this morning and worked on my blog until it was time to wake up the kids a little before 9.
While the kids were packing and getting ready to go I fixed some breakfast. I made baby chocolate cupcakes because I told Ruby I would. I also cut up some nectarines and we had some left over cantaloupe.
We packed up and left around 10. We are scheduled to meet Darrel in Heber at 11. I wanted to leave at 9:45 but it just didn't happen.
As we were driving out we saw LaVerne and lo and behold, her baby, which Rowan immediately named Vernon. Here is a blurry picture that Rowan took:
So cute!
We made it to Heber before Darrel did. We only had to wait a few minutes before he was there in his little black car. Ruby was disappointed it wasn't Big Bertha.

Ruby doing the floss.
She really can do hard things.
After saying goodbye to Darrel and the kids I headed for the Walmart in Show Low to get a bank for James to replace the one that Lola broke. This is the only one they had besides a Hawaiian girl that I didn't think he would like.
Not Joe Cool big "Big Piggy" will hold
lots of money.
I was pretty exhausted when I got home so I sat down and watched the first two episodes of the new season of "The Good Witch."
Marriage and this week the Honeymoon.
I worked on my new books, putting them in inventory and in between this and walking I watched the new Hallmark movie,
"Love, Take Two."
Jason and Marin got home just as this movie ended. After carrying sleeping kids upstairs they came down and visited with me a few minutes.
We said good night and as I was in the bedroom getting ready for bed, James came home. Happy Day!
