This week has been wonderful. My younger Sis Jen came to visit. The kids love her! She is so fun and always has a 'surprise' for Gavin. We hung out and shopped and had movie marathon night. I love when my family is able to come and hangout.
We also had the primary program in our ward. I love the program. It is so spiritual and the kids do such a great job. Gavin said he part so good. He informed us this morning that he did not want to sing that he was just going to mouth the words quietly. And that is just what he did! It was hilarious. He just moved his mouth. The other sunbeam boys were having a competition of who could sing the loudest. Great times.
I also received a calling. I am now the miamaids advisor. I am so excited! I love the young women. Today was my first day and it was pretty sad. A young women in our stake past away thing morning after a week long struggle to stay alive. It is always so hard for young people to grasp the concept of not being invincible. I remember when the first kid that I knew past away. It is soooo sad. But her mission in this life is done. The family created a blog so that members from the school and stake could keep up with her progress. SOOOO many people learned so much about our church. I am so grateful that I know that I have an eternal family. I know that we will be together forever. I know that our time here on earth is short. It is our job to make a LASTING impression. We need our missions to continue after our death just like Christ. I love my family. I love this church. I love the knowledge that we have been given.
