"Spiritually Defining Moments"
Elder Neil L. Andersen
"Along with the peaceful direction we receive from the Holy Ghost, from time to time, God powerfully and very personally assures each of us that He knows us and loves us and that He is blessing us specifically and openly. Then, in our moments of difficulty, the Savior brings these experiences back into our mind. Remembering these spiritually defining experiences takes us to our knees, declaring as did the Prophet Joseph: 'What I received was from heaven. I know it, and I know that God knows that I know it.'"

James left this morning to check on the job. When I got up I checked on the deposit we made yesterday. It had been deposited into the personal account and then withdrawn, saying a mistake had been made. I finally managed to set up a phone meeting with someone at the bank where we made the deposit. The meeting is set up at 11 a.m. when James will be back.
When Mr. Nelson from the bank called he asked to speak with James Lambson so I am glad James was there. What it all boils down to is, the check was made out to Lambson Construction and must be deposited in the Lambson Construction account. Mr. Nelson said the check would be returned within 7 days. That will not do. James said he would just have Mr. Chacon write another check. The banker agreed that would work.
James went back to Mesa and got a new check and stood in a long line to deposit it, but the deed is done. He also delivered birthday cards to Brian and Dallin. He took Dallin's to Stacy's and put it by the front door. He also brought back a case of water and some drinks for me.
The boys did not get up in time to swim this morning but they did swim all afternoon until 4:30. Around 5 I asked them what they wanted to eat for dinner. Evan asked if there was a Shake Shack close by. He said they have the best hamburgers he has ever tasted.
I checked and there is one within three miles of the resort. I downloaded their app and placed my order, 3 cheeseburgers and 3 orders of fries. I drove to the location but could not find curbside pickup. That's because you have to get out of your car and walk to the front of the restaurant and get in the curbside pickup line. I always thought curbside pickup was done from your car. Anyway, I picked up the order and then while I was driving back I realized they ordered nothing on their cheeseburgers and I had failed to place the order that way. When I got back to our room I very quietly opened up each burger and scrapped the sauce, tomato and lettuce off the buns and put the burgers back in the wrapper. I then delivered them to the boys. A few minutes later I stuck my head in their room and asked how the food was. Evan looked at me and said, "Soooo good."
The boys play basketball, watch TV, play video games, eat and drink rootbeer in their room. I work on my blog, study the gospel, and walk. James works on his computer, takes naps, eats dark chocolate raspberry sorbet bars, and watches "Lark Rise to Candleford" with me on my phone.
