General RS Meeting

I did not get to the General Relief Society Meeting on Saturday evening but took the opportulnity to watch it on the computer this pm.  It was spiritually uplifting to me.  I especially enjoyed Pres. Uchtdorf's address.  He talked about the five petals on the little forget-me-not flower.

I always enjoy when someone can take an everyday thing that most of us take forgranted see something spiritual.  Pres. Uchtdorf talked about the five petals on the flower as follows:

First, forget not to be patient with yourself.
Second, forget not the difference between a good sacrifice and a foolish sacrifice.
Third, forget not to be happy now.
Fourth, forget not the "why" of the gospel.
Fifth, forget not that the Lord loves you.

If you get a chance, I would encourage all of you (yes, the guys too) to go to the church website and either listen or read the talks.  Very inspiring and uplifting.

Grampa is doing great and sends his love.

Love you all,
Gramma

 This is AMAZING
Listen to the video with your eyes closed,
then open them and watch the video again.






This is so cool, I wonder how long it took them to think of how to do this.

Hope you all enjoy.

Another look-alike

 When Elder Judd came to serve in Fort McMurray, we told him he could have passed for our nephew, Micheal. We showed him a different picture, but this one really shows the similarities.
