I love this picture of little Grady and Dad's hands. Today we went to Dax's Primary Sacrament Program. We met Dax in the hall before the meeting and he ran and gave us a hug and began to belt our,"I Am A Child of God". We could tell that he had been well rehearsed. Then in the meeting he stood up to the pulpit and sang with loud gusto. It was a Dax solo that my Dad would have loved! As young boy my Dad always sang at funerals and in church. I miss him tonight. Jamie and I talked about Grandma this afternoon. (Thank you for the yummy Sunday Dinner!) Grandma is getting so old I really need her here with me. She doesn't want to come up, and it is hard to be down there as much as I should. But I am going to do better. Life gets complicated. We went to the Miller's Program today too. It was such a thrill to sit down and have each of the kids come give up a big hug and kiss. They all did so well on their parts and the singing was incredible! Kim even had a little part and she looked to cute pregnant. Jason was conducting and did such a great job, so handsome, but so humble too. I loved your testimony!
Last Monday I got to go the the Draper Temple to install the mural. It was a day I will always remember. The temple is so beautiful, the Celestial Room has a ceiling that seems to go up forever. I walked around and thought about how much I love my family and how blessed we are because of the temple. Do you think we could go to the temple together? Bret is finally feeling better, he has had strep. Nicole just had her knee scoped on Friday. I loved spending the day with her kids. Jenny is the dearest little mother. She takes such good care of Shawn. He fell asleep on my lap, during Journey To The Center of the Earth, Katy was leaning against my shoulder on one slide and Tyler on the other side explaining the details to me . I enjoyed the company, I sat and just drank it in. I love the Clarks! I hope Nicole will feel better real soon!
