I am the Young women's Secretary and Kennedy is the Mia Maids Pres. They start off by calling 4 at a time to bear their Testimony, then another 4 and so on. About the third group they had asked for Kennedy ( and I thought ,well here comes the water works, and they did ) . She has such a strong Testimony of the church, it makes me feel so wonderful as her Mom. She said how THANKFUL she was for Kevin in our life and how wonderful he has been to us, that really got me going because teenagers do not express themselves like that very often. And she was saying how important prayer is , and how much she loved that all of the years that it was just her & I , even though I had to work 2 jobs, she was thankful that I always made time for her. And at that time I would always wonder if I had spent enough time with her, so I am so thankful for her to realize all that I did and do for her. She is and will always be my ANGEL !!!!! Looking at her today bearing her Testimony just really made me realize that my little girl is growing up and so fast, I sometimes wish that I could freeze time and keep her my little angel. This morning when we had to get up so early ( I am NOT a morning person ) you just keep thinking how tired you are, then you go to this meeting and WOW you could feel the Spirit so strong that it made it all worth while getting up. Then our friends Brent and Stacie were blessing their little girl Daphnie, they are moving to North Carolina and this was the only Sunday that they could do it ( Brent leaves in the morning and Stacie & Daphnie will be going in Feb. ) so they did the Blessing at 4:30 with just family & friends. Again the Spirit was so strong , how lucky to have that feeling twice today. Brent has a wonderful voice and he sang a song to Daphnie, the same one that he sang for Stacie on their Wedding Day. And that just topped things off, it was a beautiful song, it got me crying all over again. We love them so much and are sad that they have to be gone for a 1 1/2 years , but they will be able to come home to visit and I am hoping to go out and see them. So it has been a very bitter sweet day. But a very WONDERFUL & SPIRITUAL Sunday. I am so thankful for my loving family and friends, how lucky am I to have them be in my life. And today Hudson is 16 months old, time sure does fly by. I just LOVE that little guy (even though he is a walking tornado !!! )Sunday, January 11, 2009
Special Sunday
Today was such a special day. It started out with our Ward Conference. Kennedy & I had a Presidency Testimony meeting this morning at 7:45 am .
