So true!
 Today I am thinking about Molly and what a special little girl she is.  This picture was taken six years ago.  It's easy to forget what she was like as a baby because now she is a six year old with lots of energy, personality, and spunk.
Thanks Tricia for posting this picture.  
This is the reason I am on Facebook.

Here is another reason.  This is Zemira and baby George.
Zemira is in my Primary class.  He is one of the kindest, sweetest boys I have ever met.  I am so grateful for this family in our ward!

 James made a trip into town this morning without me.  He took the truck to get the tractor tire fixed and to pick up some cement for his building project.  He is building a storage room for his tools, etc.
I offered to help, but he turned me down.  I am sad he has no one to help.  He comes in after working and says his back hurts.  In spite of this, he never quits.  I am so grateful for such a hard-working, dedicated husband, but worry for his health.

One of the things I read about today in my gospel study was in the book I am reading, "The Blueprint of Christ's Church".  Chapter 26 is entitled, 'How Can Studying the Scriptures Help Me Become More Christlike?'  Here is the list of ideas in this chapter:
1.  They teach Us What We Should Do.
2.  They Help Protect Us.
3.  They Give Comfort and Hope.
4.  They Soften the Heart and Appeal to the Mind.
5.  We Can Testify We Have Heard God's Voice.
6.  the Scriptures Help Keep Us True to the Faith.

For family scripture study we read Mosiah 1:15-2:8.

This morning I polished our wood floor in the family and living room.  It looks so beautiful now!  I paid bills including tithing.  I love paying tithing online.  It is so convenient.  I paid tithing, fast offerings and humanitarian contributions.  I am going to start paying my grandsons missionary contributions instead of general or ward missionary funds.  Right now only Evan and Rowan are saving for their missions.  My goal is to contribute $20 each month to Michael, Alex, Ben, James, Max, Rowan, Joshua, and Evan.

This evening instead of watching DWTS which James doesn't really like, we watched a Hallmark movie called "Follow the Stars Home."  A very touching story starring Kimberly Williams who has a handicapped child.  Her husband can't accept this child, and leaves her.  His brother is a pediatric doctor and helps "Donna" raise the child.  Such a good story.
Alexa Vega plays the girl who becomes Julie's only friend besides her mother, grandmother, and David the doctor.
