A weekend of growth

I went out to the basin to see my parents this weekend. Can you believe I forgot my camera. I wished I would have had it. My dad was sick with a cold. I spent Friday with my sister Vickie and Barbara and my brother Twain visiting with our parents. Saturday Barbara and Mom and I went to Neola to visit an Aunt and Uncle. I learned that I had a great great great great grandfather who was a stone cutter for the Salt Lake Temple and had 7 wives and 46 children. All 7 wives had their own home. Can't imagine? I also learned I had a great great great grandmother who walked accross the plains at the age of 7 hearding calves. My Gavin is 8 today I can't imagine him having to do that nor any of my grand children.

I came home Sunday and made the grand kids a little Valentine present it was fun to see them on Monday . I love visting my grand children.

My Blog

Why a Blog? A blog can seem so superficial, most blogs only post the glimpses of our lives that are the peaks and valleys, so to the reader it can seem that another life is more blessed or more fun or maybe in my case pretty boring. It is not to interesting to say I did the dishes and the laundry today, although most of my days are like that. I like to blog because it helps me to remember things, with that in mind why share? I share for my grandchildren and great niece I think it is fun for them. With all this said, i want to put a disclaimer that this really does not represent my life it is much more mandarin and has it struggles just like all of you.

Be of Good comfort, be of one mind, live in the peace and the God of love and peace shall be with you" 2 Corinthians 13:11

Toscanini

"A few years ago, when Arturo Toscanini was musical director of the New York Philharmonic Orchestra in New York City, he had a Saturday afternoon radio Broadcast. And one day he received in his mail a crumbled up little note on some brownish paper which read: "Dear Mr. Toscanini, I am a lonely sheepherder in the mountains of Wyoming. I have two prized possessions: an old violian and a battery radio. And the batteries are getting weak and begining to run down on my radio , and my violian is so out of tune I can't play it anymore. Would you please sound a A next Saturday on our program?" The next week on the progarm Arturo Toscanini annouced "To a new found friend in the mountains of Woming, the New York Philharmonic Orchestra is now, and all together and in unison, going to sound a perfect A." And they sounded a perfect A. Then the lonely little man was able to tune The a String and then the E string and then the D and the G from that perfect A. "Isn't it interesting to reflect in our own lives and in the lives of the many people who may hear at this time- those whose violin or lives may be a little out of tune-that we are able to come to a general conference of the Church and hear the marvelous messages that are spoken?" David B Haight Fahith of Our Prophets, Ensign," Nov. 2001 22

Just trying to get that perfect A , my journey.
