Up a little after 3 and working on my lesson around 4. I typed my outline and then went to lay down for a few minutes, thinking Tom was on his chair at the high table. As soon as I sat down he was on my lap.  Cat prison and I only have 20 minutes.

James is always such a big help on my lesson day. He always carries in all of my "stuff" for me.  He delivered the handouts to Primary and Young Women and one to Barbara Tignor in the library, who was so excited that we didn't forget her.

Bishop Crane conducted sacrament meeting again today. Ruthie Wilhelm was the youth speaker. She told how being a disciple of Jesus Christ helped her during wrestling season. She prayed before every match asking that she would do her best and not be hurt. 

Lynn Wallace spoke on the importance of Primary songs in helping children develop their testimonies. She told of a hardened criminal in prison who grew up in the Church and sang "Jesus Wants Me for a Sunbeam" to prove he was LDS.

Roger Wallace spoke about doing our part with all of our heart from Elder Uchtdorf's talk. He told about the shock when he was called as a bishop He says it was a time he gave his all in his calling. 

We sang one of my favorite hymns, "Because I Have Been Given Much".

Linda Stevens, the new sister in our ward, participated in the Relief Society lesson. I feel the lesson went well. I really wanted to focus on the Lord's mercy, hence the quote on my handout. 

Tom is becoming an indoor car. I am going to hate leaving him tomorrow when we go to the valley.

Elder Soares dedicated a temple in Brazil today.




I know, I'm obsessed!
