Sister Dittmar is happy

When you enter the MTC you leave your family behind.  Your family does not get an email from you until preparation day.  Christina's first preparation day is next Thursday.  (The first two days at the MTC you do not get a preparation day.)  One of the blessings of having Frank serve as a Branch President at the MTC is that I go to church there, too.  It was really fun to see Sister Dittmar (Tina) at Relief Society.  She is soooo happy.  She loves her companion.  She said it is amazing to feel the Spirit so strongly all of the time.
It was a relief to me to see her so happy.  I will not worry about her anymore and I can wait until Thursday to hear from her now.

Counting my blessings

I am so blessed.
My husband is so good to me and is a good man.
I have four wonderful daughters who are serving the Lord and doing His will.
And I have beautiful grandchildren and good and kind sons-in-law.
We live in peace and comfort.
I am surrounded by the beauties of nature.
I know my Heavenly Father lives and loves me.  I know my Savior, Jesus Christ, lives-He atoned for my sins and He loves me.
