 I am exhausted. But it’s been a great day! Adult session of stake conference was so good tonight. I got to say the closing prayer. Boys are doing well. Had lunch with the Yorgason’s and Calvin and Connie. Went shopping at Costco and it wasn’t too busy yet. So nice to be able to go shopping and get food and protein shakes and some new pants for William and myself. Yorgis stayed a lot longer than we were planning, but it was all good. And I had some good conversations with them and played an avocado game. Did some stuff for YW today too. I love my family so much. They bring so much joy. I know it’s not easy being a teenage or preteen boy! But they are doing so good. They are brilliant! Ryan is my best friend. I hope we can keep loving and serving each other and hope we can press forward with stesdfastness in Christ. With a perfect brightness of hope and a love of God and all men. I wonder if that will be the youth scripture theme when we study the Book of Mormon next year. I love my Savior and rejoice in His light and love.
