My thoughts turned also to my righteous parents, who raised me in the principles of the gospel. I was reminded in particular of a moment when my loving mother knelt with me to pray by my bedside when I was around 10 years of age. She must have felt that if my prayers were going to reach my Father in Heaven, they would need to improve. So she said, "I will pray first, and after my prayer, you pray." I will be forever grateful to her for teaching me to pray, for I learned that my Heavenly Father hears my prayers and answers them. That was another blessing I included in my list - the gift to be able to hear and learn the will of the Lord.
P3 S1
In humility, we declare that in answer to his prayer, God the Father and His Son, Jesus Christ, appeared to Joseph and inaugurated the "restitution of all things" (Acts 3:21) as foretold in the Bible.
I sold another CISA Manual today and mailed it along with Kim's birthday card, and a card to Jeanne Wallen. Sheri and I went in to town and while I went in to the post office she went next door to Ace Hardware to look for a clamp for a hose on the Razr.
Our next stop was Walmart. My main goal was to buy a new microwave. Our old one has a hole in the metal plate on the inside which causes it to spark when we try to heat anything up. Sheri went to buy groceries while I went to look a microwaves. I picked one out and texted Sheri to come over to help me put it in my basket. While I was waiting, I went over to look at gloves. It's supposed to snow tomorrow and we need more gloves in our winter box. I ran in to my friend, Kerri who was shopping for her dogs. I bought four pairs of gloves and then Kerri came over with me to look at the microwaves. Sheri came over about this time and I introduced her to Kerri. Sheri easily put the microwave into my basket.
James had given me a $150 Visa card for Christmas. The microwave was $99.00. With the four pair of gloves and some shampoo and hand sanitizer I bought, I spent $149.18. Perfect.
James was sad that I was using my card to buy a new microwave. He wanted me to buy something more personal but I am totally happy with this new microwave.
We had to go to Safeway after Walmart because Walmart was out of Rhodes rolls and Sheri insists that Max has to have them to eat with his steak. Luckily Safeway had some. After Safeway we went back to KFC for chicken. I bought a two piece box for Joshua and James and Sheri bought a bucket for everyone else to share. Joshua says he likes legs and thighs and wanted french fries for his side. James wanted the same pieces of chicken as Joshua but wanted coleslaw for his side. They both got drinks, Joshua a Pepsi and James a diet Pepsi.
We got a gift from Autumn, Palmer, and Scarlett today. Scarlett sent lots of pictures she had colored. Autumn sent some bottled fruit and a book called, "Write and Share or Contemplate and Keep. Letters to You. There are different sections in the book such as, The art and joy of letter writing, writing letter to the people who raised me, writing letter to the loves of my life, to my children, to my friends, to people who inspire me, and to my future self. I am excited to use this book and maybe even include my letters on my blog.
Alex, Shayna, Max, and Zeno arrived today. For dinner Sheri and I made hot dogs and hamburgers. James worked outside today and got cold. He came in and sat by the heater in our bedroom trying to get warm.
Someone gave us a half dozen tamales for Christmas. They were very good but I couldn't remember who gave them to us. After asking just about everyone the mystery was finally solved, it was Stacy.
I listened to "Otherwise Engaged" while walking and finished reading "Banana Split" to James. The next book in the series is called "Tres Leche." James played Hearts with Shayna, Max, and Alex. Shayna won!
Sheri and I watched these movies today:
"Sweet Holiday"
"Time for Us to Go Home for Christmas"
"Unlocking Christmas"
and
"Christmas in Vienna"
Sheri fell asleep during the last one and says she will finish watching it tomorrow.
