As I ponder the previous year's events, it gave me a time to reflect on the high points of my year, 2009. I browsed through the entries and came up with about ten or more of the ones that stood out for me and meant the most to me for having experienced.
If these entries are not here on Grandma-Mattie it is because they are on another one that covered the entire year. This one has only 144 entries to date, whereas the Stripling Warrior's Mom site has more like a years worth on similar entries.
Here is just an overview of those items of particular interest:
The baptisms of Adam, Aislyn and Kimball on January 31, 2009
The entry I wrote about Heroes in my life was of February 6, 2009. Captain Moroni is one of my heroes. All my sons are my Captain Moroni's. Bytheway, my daughters are ALL mothers of the young Stripling Warriors,who are my posterity.
