Blessings

After a fairly tumultuous morning and leading up to what turned out to be a somewhat tumultuous participation in an otherwise beautiful Hosanna shout, Julianne sat our kids down and kindly and lovingly explained to them that it seems like Satan is working particularly hard on our family right now. The mood changed. She enabled all of us to be in a position to give and receive blessings. Julianne is a marvel to me.

Joe was blessed to be patient with others and to be willing to work with them even when things didn't seem fair

Annie was blessed to see her siblings as children of a God who loves them like He loves her and to be a peacemaker, which was a role given her by her Father in Heaven

Sam was promised that if he reads his Book of Mormon and participates in Family History work, he would know exactly what to do with his family, his job, how to prepare for a mission, about college, and what he should do for the rest of his life. It was a rather sweeping promise.

Mack was blessed that he would never get into any more trouble than that from which we could help him escape, and that he would be healthy and safe.

Julianne was blessed to know how grateful the Lord is for what she has done in our home.

I am blessed because this is my family and I love them.
