My Boo is SIX

Where'd that baby go???

Brinley turned six yesterday. Hard to believe. Thats like...olllld. You say your kid is five and that sounds like a cute young age... say shes six...thats like old!
She had a great day! Loved every minute of it. She woke up to a pile of presents on her bed. She was so excited. She got to bring donuts to school. We had a party with Scotts side of the family and tonight we are having dinner at our house with my mom and dad and my cousins family.

I cant believe she is six. I cant believe I have a six year old!! That girl has given me a run for my money...but shes been worth it. Shes taught me patience. Boy oh boy has she taught me that.

I remember holding her for the first time when we got home from the hospital and thinking to myself "Shes so perfect...she makes me want to have 10 more" Then she turned 2...and I quit thinking that.

But all in all I love that girl!

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.
