Just Thinking.....

So I was talking to my little sister today (she is getting ready to teach her first year of second grade) and she was telling me about a little girl in her class. The little girl's mother and father were in plane crash this past year....and thank heavens they both survived. But, they were both burned really badly. The mother was burned so badly that she is not even recognizable except for her sweet spirit...her own baby wouldn't even go to her for months. It makes me cry just thinking about it. I know my own disappointments and trials in life don't even compare to this woman's or her family's....but it sure has made me think. I have never given much thought to the Resurrection I guess... I mean I know that is a gift and something amazing, but I just never thought much about it until I heard this story. I don't even know how to put into words how I feel about it now. It became so sacred and special to me once I realized how it would change this woman. Not only her outward appearance, but all the emotional damage that has come from this tragedy will be taken from her. It has strengthened my testimony of Jesus Christ and the amazing gift that he has given to us.

Dancing With Daddy

Jimmy's dad got married last night. It was a beautiful wedding but I was taking the pics so I didn't really get to spend too much time with Jimmy or the kids....but later I found Sarah dancing with her daddy. It was so sweet. She was so happy and proud to be dancing with him. Jimmy later told me that she had asked him to dance with her!! Too sweet!! I love that little girl!
