Happy Anniversary Honey!



You know that I would much rather have you here, but every time I walk past your picture and see your smiling face, I am assured that you really aren't very far away.

I'll love you forever! Georgia

"I call upon members of the Church and on committed parents, grandparents, and extended family members everywhere to hold fast to this great proclamation, to make it a banner not unlike General Moroni's 'title of liberty,' and to commit ourselves to live by its precepts.  As we are all part of a family, the proclamation applies to everyone." This is my family.  Me and my three children.  Some would call us "non-traditional."  But it seems that anymore, the traditional family with both a father and a mother leading the way is becomming less common than "non-traditional."  What a shame.  When Elder M. Russell Ballard shared his warning just over 10 years ago, we did not understand the extent to which the family would fall.  The family remains the target of the attacks of society at large and Satan specifically.  How do we utilize and internalize the principles contained in the proclamation?  How do we strengthen families and establish...

One year older and wiser too . . .

Today I celebrate another birthday. My first as a single mom. As the song says, "I can feel the weight on my shoulder." Life goes on and I've got decisions to make, but I don't know which direction I should go. So much weighs on my mind every day.

One Year Tribute

A few months before Dave passed away, he came across a talk that read as follows: "In Doctrine and Covenants 136:31, the Lord says, 'My people must be tried in all things, that they may be prepared to receive the glory that I have for them, even the glory of Zion; and he that will not bear chastisement is not worthy of my kingdom.'" "I now wonder how the Lord is pruning me. Am I learning the lessons he wants me to learn? Am I bearing fruit worthy of Him? Do I see and appreciate the guidance of the Master's hand in my life? Do I let go of what is unnecessary or sinful in my life and keep only that which is good?" I believe that we would all answer that Dave did. He went about doing good and was a positive influence in the lives of many, many people. I know that he continues to influence my life for the better. If you are reading this, please take a minute to add a comment. Share with us a memory that you have of Dave, a story of how he's affected yo...
