Do you like doing the monkey bars???

So this year started off not so good for Jentry. Her best friend doesnt go to her school anymore. Shes moving and goes to a different school. Her other best friend from school moved to Texas. When we went to look who was in her class she didnt know very many people. So WE were dreading the first day of school.

Yesterday was the first day of school.

She got in the truck and said "School Sucks!" I knew what that meant. I asked her why and she said because she had no one to play with. :-( I hate to hear that!!!

So today I told her, "You try and find someone to play with at school." and she said she would.

Well she came in the door a much happier girl today. Said she found a girl that sits by her and they played at every recess together! YAY! I said so what did you say to her? And she said "Do you like doing the monkey bars?" and the girl said yes! So they did the monkey bars until their hands hurt and then went and laid on the grass!

I hope tomorrow is just as good of a day!

I belong

Elder Jeffrey R. Holland in speaking of the divinity of The Book of Mormon said: For 179 years this book has been examined and attacked, denied and deconstructed, targeted and torn apart like perhaps no other book in modern religious history—perhaps like no other book in any religious history. And still it stands. Failed theories about its origins have been born and parroted and have died—from Ethan Smith to Solomon Spaulding to deranged paranoid to cunning genius. None of these frankly pathetic answers for this book has ever withstood examination because there is no other answer than the one Joseph gave as its young unlearned translator. In this I stand with my own great-grandfather, who said simply enough, “No wicked man could write such a book as this; and no good man would write it, unless it were true and he were commanded of God to do so.” I testify that one cannot come to full faith in this latter-day work—and thereby find the fullest measure of peace and comfort in these, our times—until he or she embraces the divinity of the Book of Mormon and the Lord Jesus Christ, of whom it testifies. I ask that my testimony of the Book of Mormon and all that it implies, given today under my own oath and office, be recorded by men on earth and angels in heaven. I hope I have a few years left in my “last days,” but whether I do or do not, I want it absolutely clear when I stand before the judgment bar of God that I declared to the world, in the most straightforward language I could summon, that the Book of Mormon is true, that it came forth the way Joseph said it came forth and was given to bring happiness and hope to the faithful in the travail of the latter days.
