Out Like a Lamb - Spring Arrives

In spite of the fact that it was a very stressful week due to the ill health of my father and the struggles my mother is having because of it, it was a very spiritually fulfilling week.  It is soul satisfying to see my daughters and others take over and help Mom and Dad when they are needed, even going beyond what is necessary.  I think they have strengthened family bonds that may not have been solidified had we been home. Working on presentations on the life of the Savior, studying PMG and the scriptures, and especially General Conference have inspired and humbled us.  I am amazed daily at the "tender mercies" that are given to us as we try to serve on our mission.  Our Institute students bring us joy that is hard to explain and they are always willing to help in our efforts.  In addition, their insights and testimonies strengthen ours.  You might say we learn together and all are edified.  What a privilege!
