BFF's

Jentry has been waiting for this weekend with great anticipation!!! Brittney came down! Brittney was her first friend when we moved into this house when Jentry was 4 years old. I remember her coming over for the first time with her cute little curly hair. Both her and Jentry were so shy. But the next day Jentry had my dad take her back over to Brittneys so they could play. And it was non stop after that. Until Brittney had to move about 2 years back. Broke Jentrys heart. They have seen eachother very limited since then. Just a couple weeks ago Jentry had asked me if I thought she would ever see Brittney again. I told her I didnt know for sure. Then Brittneys mom got ahold of me and asked me if Jentry was going to be around this weekend. They were coming down! Jentry couldnt have been more excited. For a week she kept asking me.. "Are they for sure coming down?" She was convinced they might change their plans.

They had a great weekend!! Played the night away on Friday! They had a late night with Kayleah and then came back here for a sleepover. They were up bright and early the next morning out to play with Kayleah again! They loved every minute of it! I was so glad they played well together. Somehow its not always a good idea to have three girls together..someone always goes home mad...but they had SUCH a great time! Jentry was totally bummed when I called her home so we could take them up to my parents while we went out for our Anniversary. I got the look of death when I told her it was time to go. We hurried and took some pictures and said our goodbyes. Brittney said she would be down this summer and Jentry is banking on that! It couldnt come soon enough!

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.
