Back in 1996 there was a story in "The Friend" magazine titled "Chopsticks." (Click here for the link to the story.) It's a great story about family unity. S had to give the talk in Primary on Sunday, so we told this story together! I love the concept of the strength of family pulling together! We are so fortunate to have a fabulous family unit! I can't imagine life without each member! Tonight I had the beautiful opportunity (second time this week) to hold J as he fell asleep! I love to have him close! I cherished the moment, and in fact moved out to the front porch to enjoy the hug!

This is the view from my front porch right now. It is coming together so beautifully! J has been working so hard on it with C.G.! Even when it was 106 degrees outside today they worked through the middle of the day! J definately has done the hard parts! C has a small trackhoe, so he can pick up the rocks and place them, but it is J there working with shovel on his knees, in the dirt working,
sweating! Thank you J, C, and B!! Tonight is the first night we have turned both sides of water on! It is so beautiful! Quite different than the dirt mound it has been for the past 5 years! This second picture, shows what it has been since we put the round driveway in a few years ago, and this young man is the one who has been a real engine in transforming it! Thanks J!
