Good Things to Come

My sister posted a video on Facebook today that touched my heart.  It was part of a talk given by Elder Jeffrey R Holland, member of the Quorum of Twelve Apostles, at church, titled "Good Things to Come".

"Don't you quit.  You keep walking.  You keep trying.  There is help and happiness ahead.  Some blessings come soon, some come late, and some don't come until heaven.  But for those who embrace the gospel of Jesus Christ, they come.  It will be all right in the end.  Trust God and believe in good things to come."

I feel reminded of the love that my Heavenly Father has for me when I hear or read things like this.  It is at times like this that my hope is restored and I feel like I can endure to the next day.

A Day With Grandpa

As you can see I'm 2 months behind and have many things I want to capture, unfortunately, there are some things that I don't remember the date they happened.  Thankfully the date isn't as important as the memory.

One day Lindsey wanted to go visit Grandpa so she called to see if she could come over.  He said that would be great and asked if she wanted him to come get her.  She jumped at the chance.  She was very excited for him to get here and anxiously waited in the driveway (in the light rain). 

I couldn't miss the opportunity of capturing the complete joy on her face.

She had a great time with Grandpa and now prefers for him to come pick her up.  It's a lot more fun than having me drive her off.  I love the reminder that sometimes it's the simple things.

I'm Still Here

Yes, I'm still here.  I hope to be catching up really soon.  :)
