A note from mom

Hermana,


Hey sis, it has been an interesting week …. So many emotions, and goodness it has been hot.
 
Maleck had football camp Monday through Thursday, so I watched a lot of football, and I fed him a lot of food. He did well, and he is learning much. So proud of him🩷

On Tuesday, dad and I attended the pre trial for brother Stolworthy. Seeing him in shackles and an orange jumpsuit was super tough. Poor Julia. And the kids😢. He is presently out on bail awaiting trial. 

Wednesday I attended a collaboration day with the English department. Kaeli and I planned a lot , and so did Emalee and I. It was good to see everyone. I have just two more weeks of my summer vacay😢😢😢

Thursday and Friday I played catch up - you know the drill. 

Saturday, we celebrated the life of sister grimshaw. The funeral was beautiful as we the cemetery and luncheon. It was wonderful to visit with old ward members. The Zortmans came down from northern utah as did the morgans, and visited with Many ward members we no longer see due to the ward split. Everyone asked about you including President Romeril. He says to say hi!

Sister grimshaw was an amazing woman.  I have had so many spiritual experiences of which she was a part. I will miss her dearly.  I will forever be grateful that she has been such an integral part of my life. 

In  my spare time, I have been reading Farenheit 451, working on my poetry unit and preparing for my gospel doctrine lesson I teach today. It has been blazing hot here, but finally last night I enjoyed sitting on the back porch. 

I haven’t hear much from seleck, leydi and Bella this week. Stockton and Amanda came to the funeral. That was nice. Madsen has been a roller coaster this week. Maleck eat a ton. 

Abi arrived in Peru safely and Lily made it to the MTC.  I love you Emma. I am so excited fo talk to you tomorrow and hear about your week. 

God speed…. Happy 6 month tomorrow

Xoxoxoxo, mom

Well today was long but filled with lots of good things. I got my heart rate up to 180 this morning. It literally felt so good. We had goal setting as a zone this morning, cool to see the zone come together and make goals to help fulfill the fathers will. personal study today was good. I am so close to finishing the book of mormon. I really liked Ether 15:34. Just how it refers to doing the lords will, which is something that I am not the best at. Today the lord concecrated our efforts. We got a super prepared refferal who wants to learn more about the book of mormon. And the other one literally ran into us on the way back to our car. Finally seeing a little bit of the fruits of our efforst from finding!! Today we had interviews and I didnt cry!!!

 August 21, 2024 Good Morning Hermana! I am looking forward to hearing about your new area, your new apartment, and about your WANT LIST for the next package I am going to send you!  The cherry chip cookies you will absolutely love!!!   Remember the object of this week – REMEMBER LESSONS LEARNED FROM THE PAST!  A quick story for you – Mary and her mommy were going for a walk .  Some people they passed were frowning ( pause your reading this story and put on the biggest frown that you have) .  Mary asked Mommy, “Why are the people so sad?” Mommy said, “I don’t know, but maybe we can smile at them and help them be happy.” As they walked along, Mary saw a woman coming toward them. Mary smiled her biggest smile  (pause again and put on your biggest smile!)..  When the woman saw Mary’s happy face, she smiled back. Mary said, “It worked!” Mommy said, “When we choose to be happy, it helps others be happy too.”   These past weeks, I have needed your ...
