Memories.....

So I have been trying to see if I can remember things from my childhood. Most of it is a blur, but occasionally things come back to my mind. I remember as a child in Primary, we would always go on the "Penny Drive" in February for Primary Children's Hospital. I especially remember one COLD, SNOWY, February day. My teacher was Sis. Helen Lystrup. We were getting older, probably eleven, you know the old girls in primary. Anyway, we were not so excited, I don't remember exactly how she bribed us, but we went on the trip and back to her house for sugar cookies. Great big PINK frosting Heart cookies. I wasn't sure why this memory was playing over in my head, but this past month, Jordan has been referred to Primary Children's hospital neurosurgery department. I think it now becomes clear why this memory was there. It's a bit of a scary time for our family, but I feel calm. Could it be a blessing from the service I did those years ago coming back to calm my troubled heart...? I am trying to look for the symbolism in the world around me and how all things testify of Christ - I think the Pink frosting Heart cookies soothed my Spirit when I was eleven, and now I think of them representing the love of the Savior and how he has given His Spirit to always be with me - what a blessing! On this last Saturday, my little granddaughter Brooke was here - she is a lively wonderful little child of God. I was watching her in my room while her mother was getting beautiful - I lifted her off of my bed so she wouldn't fall while I hung some clothes in the closet. In a scurried little manner, she made it into the bathroom before I turned around and pulled a hot curling iron on her head - I knew the minute I heard it fall what had it happened, it had burned the whole right side of her face! I grabbed her and prayed very hard - I felt like she needed a blessing, but I also felt the Spirit, which is promised to always be with us. I worried about her most of the day - the next day when she came, she only had a small red spot under her eye, I truly believe it was a miracle we witnessed. It was just a little reassuring moment that we are children of God and He will help us through the rough spots. Not always the way we want, but He will give us Peace!
