President Gordon B Hinckley



We found out tonight that President Gordon B. Hinckley had passed away and Jakob asked us what that meant. We told him that he was elderly and that Heavenly Father and Jesus needed him in heaven. Later that night he was saying his prayer he always blesses Gordon B. Hinckley. I told him he should bless that Gordon B. Hinckley's family would be comforted. And Jakob's response was "Bless that Gordon B. Hinckley won't die." After his prayer we explained why he had passed away. And Jakob began to cry and we asked him what was wrong and he said I don't want President Hinckley to die I Love Him. It reminded me how important this gospel is and how much I loved President Hinckley he was an amazing man. He had such a wonderful personality and a loving nature about him. My prayers are with his Family.

No good very bad day

Yesterday was a bad day and to top it off James was out of town. First it started out with the boys deciding that they wanted to get up at 4:30 am (Did I mention A.M.) Then I had a meeting with some people from the school district at 9:00. And you can only imagine how that went with two very active, and tired boys. Well later that day Kaeden fell off the couch and he ended up hitting his head on the corner of his toy container which resulted in a lot of blood everywhere. So I put both the kids in the car and drove to the nearest Instacare. And we ended up leaving with two stitches and a sticker. Well the only good part of my day was when I picked James up from the Airport at 8:00 that night. I hope I don't have any more of these days. Here's to wishing.
