Congratulations, Blake

With Blake's 14th birthday last week came his ordination to the Teacher's quorum today. Grandpa and Grandma Newey and Melissa all came. It was awesome. So neat to see the priesthood in my family. Kinda got me when Tanner was able to stand in the circle. I am very grateful for the priesthood and the men in my life who honor it. What great examples you are to my boys, and what great examples you are to me. Way to go Blake, I am so proud of you! We had a very rough weekend, but I am so grateful for the Sabbath/fast day we had today. It rejuvenated me and helped me see the Lord in my life. Sometimes I get so caught up in the chaos I forget what's really important, and how much our Heavenly Father loves us and will guide us if we will be led. That tends to be hard for me, I like to see what's in front of me. Anyway, I am learning and hopefully there's a little more slack in the rope because my heels are wearing out fast.
