Sigh...............

So many things to be grateful for today. First of all Devin is done with finals!!!!!! We actually went through two six packs of Pepsi and he even has some left over for March Madness. Second he has done really well so far with the grade's he has gotten back. Third our dear friends little girl is getting better. For our friends in Portland you know what I am talking about. For our family and friends back home here is a short story. With all the stress that seems to settle in here like a cloud and hang for a while. We had some friends who had there baby girl in the ICU for several days with a severe case of pneumonia. We have all been very humbled by thier experiences and we all look at family a little differently. I have told Penny a few times how grateful I have been for her sharing her thoughts and feelings through the computer about what she has been going through as a mother, but I am eternally grateful for a knowledge of a Loving father in Heaven and our family relationships. We are so blessed to not only have our families, but dear friends in the gospel to share experiences and blessings with us as we face a trial. I am thankful to Penny and Eric for letting us all be a part of it! Heavenly Father has really blessed us all with a further knowledge of his divine role in our lives. May we remember it always! Fourth on less serious note.... I am doing really well so far on my March Madness picks. Yes I am grateful for March madness. It's fun. I didn't used to get into it, but with Devin's encouragement I have done a bracket the past few years and I love it. Happy Easter everyone. We love you all so much!
