This last week has been very emotional. A friend of mine, Brenna Manson, passed away rather unexpectedly on Wednesday. We miss her terribly! Her husband, Paul, is our home teacher and her daughter, Christy, has babysat for us. Our girls are super sad and keep their family, mainly Christy, in their prayers since they found out on Thursday morning. Our girls love their babysitters, outside of family they've only had 2 maybe 3, and to hear them pray for Christy makes you heart swell with emotions. "Please bless the Manson's family that they won't have sad hearts while their mom is with you." and "Christy is the bestest babysitter we ever had, can't we call her and have her come babysit so we can make her happy again?" Her services are this week, so it will be pretty emotional again. I'm so thankful for the knowledge of the gospel that there IS life after this one and that we will be in our Heavenly Father's presence when this life is over. And especially that our loved ones, both related and not, will be with us for eternity. This knowledge has brought peace to my heart many times as loved ones have passed away.

Val I am so sorry to hear about your friend. I'd call, but it's barely 5 am there. We will pray for them and also for you.
Hey Valerie, my mom found my blessing dress and mailed it to me, so I'm going to use that dress. Thank you so much for the offer to make me one!
Valerie, I love the family picture on your header. I am glad to see your blog, but sad to read your current post. Hope all feels better soon. Love, Erin
