Piano Lessons!!!

Jentry has started taking piano lessons. Shes wanted to for a long time...but lazy mom keeps forgetting to ask if the piano teacher has any openings. Well I went to the cannery with a bunch of ladies and 'Piano Teacher' ( Loni Wilson) was there. So that was my chance!!! She said she had one more opening. WAHOO!

So Jentry started piano lessons on Thursday. She goes every week and then once a month they also have group lessons with people at her same level.

The private lessons are only a half an hour at a time but boy did she teach her a ton just in that thirty minutes. She was playing a song by the time we left.

Jentry is loving it! She even begs to play all the time!! I hope she keeps this up!!

I have been so tempted to cut my hair short for like the past 3 years but I'm too chicken. #3 Good job on getting piano lessons going. I wish I could play. My mom always forced me to take lessons as a kid, and I always hated it, now I wish I practiced more, and kept up with it. #4 You have such a cute family!; 10:14 PM

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.
