Work was HARD today!

Goodness, those boys are going to run me ragged!!! Today I was trying to make a pasta salad to take to lunch with Amy, Holly and Jacoy. Should be easy enough, right. Lisa called for our daily chat and those boys thought it would be a great time to get into EVERYTHING they could while mom couldnt just yell at them!!
So Im making the salad, having a good conversation with Lisa when I turn around. Ty has gotten out the eggs and given them to Chase. He is throwing them on the ground. He broke 4 in like a 2 second time span. So Im still on the phone, scrubbing the floor when I turn around and Chase has all the tortilla chips throwing them on the floor. Once again, thanks to Ty. So I throw the bag on the counter, run to get the vacuum. Come back, and they have the flour and sugar buckets out. Luckily I caught them before they got those open but BOY...those boys were relentless!!! EVERYWHERE!!

So if anyone ever asks me if I work. Why yes I do, I had worked up a sweat. Running back and forth. All with the phone in my ear. Just like a "real" job, right?

Anyway, then we went to lunch, played, ate, talked. Came home, put them to bed. And everything is A-OK now. Life is once again...GOOD.

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.
