Just saw a darling picture of my nephew and his little girl. Its a close up of her taken from behind as she looks out over a lake and unknown to her, Daddy's hand is securely holding on to the handle on the back of her life vest. It reminded me of the Savior and how we think we are being so safe with our life vests on, but it truly is His hand, holding tight to our vest, that affords us safety, even when we don't realize He is there, hanging on to us, He always is. How grateful I am for that handle on my vest and sacred hand that is always grasping it!!

it's my blog and I can brag if I want to......
Kyle has totally given me some major bragging rights this afternoon!!
His teacher has always felt that he was really smart, so she asked us for permission to test him to see if he could qualify to be in the academically gifted students group.
He did a week of testing, and we waited to see if he got in to the group. This afternoon I received a phone call from the lady in charge of Kyle's testing, she informed me that they have tested 6 schools in the area, and only 3 children Kyle's age got into the group. Kyle was one of them! She then proceeded to tell me, Kyle was in the 99th percentile in every subject. I didn't know what to say so I said.. "wow thats great" She added.. " Its amazing!!" I told her kyle had always been clever, and she said.. "he's exceptional!!!!" I was just as proud as can be!!!
well done handsome! we are sooo proud of you!
