It was especially fun because we connected via video chat with Rachel who is in North Carolina for Thanksgiving. As I looked around at the rest of my presidency, I wondered why I chose such beautiful women!! I am definitely the plain one!! But I love these women. They are even more beautiful inside! They are such a good support and help to me. I will learn a lot if I just listen to them.
I was so excited today because my mom came down to St. George and she said she would come over after my meeting. Lance and I were outside visiting with my neighbors when she pulled up. Lance screamed, "Grandma!" and he ran to her arms. I wanted to scream, "Mom!" and run to her arms, too. We had a quick business meeting, talking about the Hawaii timeshares that I am helping Mom with since Dad is gone. We hardly got to talk about much else, but it was so good to be with her and see her. We are excited to spend Thanksgiving together.
She left just as I hurried to Owen's class to help with their Kindergarten Thanksgiving Feast. It was so cute and fun to see Owen. When I finally brought all the kids home from school, we were so happy to have a break from school!! It felt so fun and exciting. The night before, Emma and I spent an hour working on one math problem. We finally went over to Sunee's house to get some help. We were on the right track, but she set us straight. I know awhile ago, I decided that I couldn't help Emma much longer with her math, but I'm proud to say that I've gotten my groove back and I am once again a good helper. Emma felt good about her test today, so now we can just kick up our heels and have a great break.
Julia screamed and we all ran outside to see the most gorgeous sunset. I've decided that it must have something to do with November. We've been blessed with breathtaking skies lately. I snapped a few pictures and stood with my arms around my kids. It warms my heart to see such grandeur. I am so very grateful for the beauty of the earth.
God is so good. 💖
