Today has been a roller coaster Mother's Day. We arose early and got to church early so that David, Nathan's oldest son could be interviewed by the Bishop for the Aaronic Priesthood. His birthday was this week and he turned 12. Sara and the kids met us there. David was interviewed and presented in sacrament meeting for sustaining and then they ordained him in Priesthood session. Sara and I were able to go in for the ordination and Nathan was able to do the ordination. It was a very emotional time for Nathan but he was able to do the ordination. Sara took the kids home after church as it was Mother's Day and her birthday was yesterday and she had to work.
We came home and had lunch. I had several ecards and texts from my children and it was fun to get those. After eating I was able to do a video hangout with BJ on my phone and talk to him for about and hour. It was good to talk to him. He said that Holly had just got home from 6 days with her parents at her sister's graduation. Holly was at work. He also talked to Larry and Nathan.
Kirsten and Jacob's families sent gift cards with e-cards so that is fun to have some money to spend on Amazon. Erick and Heather sent a CD and earings and chocolate that I got earlier in the week. I am listening to the CD now as it is Mormon Tabernacle choir. Maren and Jacob posted greetings on Facebook this week. Nathan is here and I have enjoyed having him in my life more.
I slept for about 2 hours after talking to BJ. I was surprised that I was so tired because I have tried to get to bed earlier this week so I am not so tired. Larry gave me a card and fixed dinner for me tonight so I have had a good day.
I sent Mom's present on Thursday so I was able to talk to her a couple of times this week. It was funny because I called her to see if she got the flowers I sent her and she said, "well no" so I said that the company said they had delivered it and she said, "just a minute" and she looked at the one present again and it was from us but she had read Larry and thought it was from my brother Larry because I signed it Larry and June.
Anyway Happy Mother's Day.!!
