Soccer is over. I enjoy the season and my boys love to play, but it is always a relief when the season ends.
The wedding is over. It was wonderful. I could not have done it without all of my wonderful friends who helped!
. . .but the gratitude I feel in my heart for the things of eternity are what overwhelms me at this time. I don't know if I can explain my feelings for my family, friends and the gospel. I just know that they are what life is all about. We are here to learn and be tried, but mostly I think we are here to help each other along the way!


"For the beauty of the earth, For the beauty of the skies, For the love which from our birth, Over and around us lies, For the beauty of each hour Of the day and of the night, Hill and vale, and tree and flow'r, Sun and moon, and stars of light, For the joy of human love, Brother, sister, parent, child, Friends on earth, and friends above, For all gentle thoughts and mild,
Lord of all, to thee we raise This our hymn of grateful praise."
