Thanks to all the Angel's of Hope

I want to thank my Heavenly Father for his immediate answers to my prayers. The angels that are sent to strengthen my hope, also strengthen my testimony. I am learning that my faith and happiness are best friends. When I need help, someone is inspired to lift me up. Today it was my neighbor Deanne Maggio, but there are hundreds of angels in my life. Are you reading my blog? Do you know me personally? Then there is a 100% chance that you have brightened my life. I thank you. May I pass a little hope to you- Heavenly Father loves you. He cares about your happiness. He sends hope and help to you. I love you!

As Promised

Here are a few memories of 'Singing'. I loved every minute of it. I hope that Hayden feels a great satisfaction in his talent and hard work. He deserves a great pat on the back. I tried to get a video of him 'Singing in the Rain'...but some tall dude in front of me was taping it also and kept sitting up high in front of me. (Hey that's MY boy!) This will live as a very happy memory right up there with Carter's coronation as King of West Bountiful, Lacey as class valedictorian, Morgan as Golda, Marinda's solo in the Messiah, Jeremiah presenting me with my first grandchild and Stephanie's graduation from nursing school. (There are a lot more happy moments, I was just scratching the surface...I tell you they are incredible)

What a Night!!

I try to be humble and in so doing, I don't let my children know how wonderful they are. So this isn't a 'proud' moment (Oh, yes it is!), but it is really a 'happy' moment. We had so much fun last night at Singing In the Rain. I loved seeing many friends. I loved being with my sweetheart. I was amazed at every moment that Hayden and his friends were on stage. It was wonderful. The students in the musical were all talented and should be proud of their efforts. My cheeks were hurting at the end of the evening from smiling. My son sang, danced and acted superbly. I knew many of the actors and they all did a great job. I also cried in Hayden's solo- Singing In The Rain and then had to admit I was crying to Kenny. He did a great job. (Hayden that is although Kenny did a good job of enjoying the show.) I have been enjoying so many blessings because of my children. I felt a touch of the Celestial kingdom with Morgan, Kenny and Colton on Saturday. I am at peace and have Lacey home now. I was blessed to be with all my grandchildren in the past few days and I really love being around their parents, Stephanie and Richard, Jeremiah and Marian and Marinda and Jamey. Carter has been working hard to improve his grades and his habits and I am so proud of him also. He is a good boy. I guess this is turning into a Mother's Day kind of thing. But I am going to look at Mother's Day different this year. It isn't a day to have homage paid to me, or honors and gifts. I am going to use it as a day of gratitude that I am allowed to be a mother and to such amazing children.
