Freezing Time

I was sitting in Relief Society on Sunday and I had an overwhelming desire to just freeze time and the scene and remember it in my heart. Since Stopping time is not something I can do I decided to write it down so I can remember it years from now. My neighbor and Friend Heather had her little boy Jackson with her in Relief Society last Sunday. Heather leaned over the row and hinted that she would like to hold Nola. So as she was holding Nola Jackson was entertaining himself by helping his mom entertain Nola when he turned around and gave me his signature thumbs up with his big Jackson grin on his face. It made me smile, but the overwhelming desire to stop or slow down time had me fighting back some tears that started to make their way out. I remember thinking when moving away from Utah that someday it would be hard to move away from Oregon. Well it will be and it won't be, but I will miss the friendships we have made here so much. Thanks Jackson for being such a sweet little boy!
