We should not underestimate or overlook the power of the Lord’s tender mercies. The simpleness, the sweetness, and the constancy of the tender mercies of the Lord will do much to fortify and protect us in the troubled times in which we do now and will yet live. When words cannot provide the solace we need or express the joy we feel, when it is simply futile to attempt to explain that which is unexplainable, when logic and reason cannot yield adequate understanding about the injustices and inequities of life, when mortal experience and evaluation are insufficient to produce a desired outcome, and when it seems that perhaps we are so totally alone, truly we are blessed by the tender mercies of the Lord and made mighty even unto the power of deliverance (see 1 Ne. 1:20).

School Days

I love this not so little girl! I love the perma-grin she has had on her face the last couple days knowing that this day was coming. Today is her first day of second grade and like every other year she is so excited to be going back to school. I don't worry at all that she is loving every minute of it.
Lizzy's day is coming soon

and Gideon is going to be very sad when they are both gone.
Here is to another great School Year!!!
