Wow Christmas and the New Year is over, let the new Year begin!!!!!  I have many things to be grateful for.  I have a wonderful Husband that keeps me going.  We support each other despite trials that go on in our lives.  Our love grows stronger and stronger each day.  I will never take for granted the love and support from my husband and others.  I am grateful for the Atonement of the Savior and the sacrifice that He gave to us so that we are able to go back and live with Him and our Father in Heaven one day.  I am grateful to start the new year off with great family and friends.  I hate that I have lost one of my best friends but you know life goes on and when one door shuts another door opens or even a window.  I am grateful for an amazing LDS ward.  I have learned how important the Priesthood Power of the Gospel is.  I am very grateful for amazing Home teachers and visiting teachers and there willingness to be there when times are tough spiritually.  I am grateful for the power of prayer.  I know that Heavenly Father hears and answers are prayers.  We all need to exercise that Faith like Alma talked about in Alma 32 in the Book Mormon, in our lives.  I am way excited to be able to teach the CTR 7 class in Primary this year.  To learn and teach that age that is turning 8 and watch how they progress in the Gospel.
Thank you to all my family and friends that have been there for Tom and I this past year.  Thank you for your example of the Savior's love.
May it be an awesome 2012 year.

You Know His Number

This poem was on my cousin's blog and I borrowed it, Thanks Kelsey I really needed to hear this and to remind me How important Talking with Our Heavenly Father.
  
You Know His Number
His line is never busy,
Pick you your phone and see.
You will always be able to reach Him,
Just drop to your knees.
You have unlimited minutes,
I know you have always been told,
And I will guarantee one thing,
You'll never be ask "will you hold?"
I'm not a "little prayer rock",
So don't tuck me in your drawer.
Don't put me under your pillow,
Or chuck me on the floor.
But keep me close beside you,
And use me all the time.
For in this world around us,
Satan's at his prime.
You can call when you need Him,
Or just to have a chat.
Just bow your head and call,
"Heavenly Father, where are you at?"
And when there's an emergency,
No need to dial 911.
Just close your eyes and say,
"Help me out or forgive me for what I have done."
It's never too late to call Him,
He never goes to bed.
Remember, "ask and ye shall receive",
Is what He said.
So next time when you're feeling down,
Or maybe feeling blue.
Just pick you your little prayer phone,
He'd love to hear from you.
