A Letter From Ty

One night I was just crawling into bed when Ty ran into my room and said, "Why didn't you read my letter I left you at your door?" I told him that I didn't know he had left me a letter. So he ran into the hall and grabbed his letter he had written. He has been writing his ABC's on paper for awhile but nothing that ever made sense. Usually when the kids write me letters that don't make much sense Ill read them out loud and make up my own words to them. They love it. So I was doing this with this letter. I said "Dear Mom, you are the best mom ever! I love you so much. Love Ty" Then I noticed that he had written "MOM" and I looked a little closer at the letter. Sure enough, he had tried to write basically the same thing. Look closely.

Der Mom, Yor D Bet Mom Edhr (Then I don't know what the rest of it says)

I thought it was so so cute! I love being the best mom EDHR!

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.
