I had one of my beautiful nieces get married on Sat. Weddings are such a monumental moment.

We had gotten back the day before from a few days in Dallas Texas, where we were able to hook up with a missionary buddy of Kevin's that we hadn't seen in many years. We had a great evening with them. We stayed at a real nice motel and I especially enjoyed this little 'happy Budda" statue that was on the grounds. He looks like he loves life and made me feel glad inside.

Kevin celebrated a birthday on Friday and we had Mother's Day today and got to talk with our son who is in Hobbs New Mexico on a mission. He's been out one year now and is such a good and faithful son.

My heart was touched by his dedication and graditude; as it is by all my children. They are all very generous with graditude and praise. There good lives bring me honor and joy.

Children begin by loving their parents; as they grow older they judge them; sometimes they forgive them. Mine are very forgiving and kind.
