Hello, I am now recovering from knee surgery. They didn't need to do Knee replacement and but they still had to fix a torn tendon and my knee cap. I have to keep it still fully straight, even putting it off a pillow it is very painful, to just get up to go to the bathroom. So, grateful for my wonderful husband who takes such great care of me! He is so patient w/ me. I can't say enough about him, and so grateful to my sweet Daughter Hannah is getting to be so independent!
Last week, for FHE, she read an article out of the Friend, of Sister Barbara Thompson, second counselor in the R.S talked about her experience going to the Hill commourah,and her experience there. She told about her praying and finding out for the herself the church is true! I then expressed to Hannah she can too find out by prayer that the church is true. She said, I don't need to ask!! I already know the church is true! I am so grateful for her sweet and innocent spirit and hope she will always remember that she knows the church is true!
I think I wrote earlier that I have put her in voice lessons! I might be a little prejudice but I think she has a very good voice. Tonight, while we were talking I finally talked her into letting me record her sing, I am a Child of God. I hope I can get it on here! It is so sweet like her! Grateful her birth mother wanted to give this sweet child the gospel. I hope one day she will know how special and lucky she is by having the gospel in her life! Until next time!!

Yet Another!!
I am not sure what happened, I know I had a post on here from a couple of weeks ago but I guess I am going to rewrite what I wrote..
But, yes, It is time for yet another surgery.. My # 19th!! Hard for me to believe. I think it was my last one my sister and I figured out it is about 1 every 2 1/2 years or so. So, I am due. Last time it was my left knee, this time Right knee. I just get to be the lucky one I guess. Your knee cap is suppose to be on your knee 6 degree's longitude, mine has been 20 degrees longitude. The doctor was shocked that I hadn't been in the E.R and that it always pops back into place after popping out. He asked me like a couple of times to make sure I was correct that I never had to go to the E.R. I said, no. I am grateful for the ward I am in because they have been good and kind, they are going to bring dinner's into for me, and a friend is going to pick up Hannah from school and take her. I guess this means we are officially in the ward now, when I need help. I have been wearing the huge brace,more like on my leg to my ankle, that I have had to wear and it is really annoying because I can't bend it more then 30 degree's too. It is hard, but so grateful I can even walk, and it can be healed. Speaking of healing, last week Matt was down here working and I asked him if he would help Chris assist in giving me a blessing before my surgery. He said of course. So, he came over one evening and Chris asked me if I minded Matt giving it since he always did, (which is true..haha) and since he rarely does. I said if it was ok w/ Matt and he said of course. I had such a hard week, I had a cardiology appt to cear me for my surgery and got poked and prodded then couldn't even get a vein, and my knee was just so swollen after them draining 60 cc's of fuild out from it. So, as they gave me the blessing he Blessed me that I pain would be minimal and that I would be able to get through the next week. Also that the Dr.'s could fix the problem and there wouldn't be any repercussions after my healing. What comfort and joy it is to be able to have a blessing. All my blessings are comfort but w/ the Concentrated Oil I have a testimony of. After the blessing my swelling went down w/in a day or two and I feel better! I even think, wow, do I really need the surgery right now or can I put it off? I know in my heart I do but so grateful for the power of the priesthood, and that my husband and cousin honor and is willing to bless my life! Greatful for my Savior that gives me the strength to live day to day and that I can one day be completely free of pain and be w/ my family Eternally!
Hannah is so enjoying second grade. I am sorry about no pictures, I just have been bad lately. I have put her in voice lessons and she loves it! She sings all day long. I hope to record her while she isn't looking so I can somehow put it on here. Until next time..
