More gratitude for my sweet friends and family!!!
Thank you Ms.Katie for dinner, Grandma for taking 2 of my kids to visit their cousins in NC, Aunt Chrys for feeding and caring for my 2 kids while they are there, Heather for watching my other 2 kids while I was at school today, Mckenzie for doing my paper work taxes for magical memories, Mom for helping me write all the papers due this week for mid-term week, Blake and Andrew for cleaning house, Lisa for ordering magical memories, all the other things and prayers that have gone unspoken that I am forgetting to write about, and the bomb threat at school today so I could get out early. It is amazing how much I needed my community this week and didn't even know it. I feel so overwhelmed with love-I can't explain it. Because of you all this I was able to take 5 mid-terms test and turn in 3 research papers! Thank you Thank you Thank you. Thank you for being in tune with me and when I told the Lord I needed help you came my way. I knew by Tuesday night when I got home and Katie had snuck over here and hid dinner in my fridge I was receiving some major tender mercies this week.
When I was 14 I received a patriarchal blessing...In my blessing it states that I would get my education from a university where I would grow in knowledge and receive spiritual education at the same time. When I was younger I thought that meant BYU(ricks then) I just assumed because I had to take religious classes there -hence the spiritual growth. Not even the case I have had to rely so much on the Lord in the past 2 months than I ever had to in my entire life. I can't even explain it fully. I wish I was a beautiful writer and could explain the whisperings of the spirit that have guided me and helped direct me-but that's the best way I know how to explain it! Thank you again for helping me so much!
