what happened yesterday

It was a big day for me, but life took an unexpected detour, as ought to be expected when we're talking about life.

It was Brooksie's Baptism, and I was not "feeling it" cause I was preoccupied with noisy children (mine). Then something miraculous happened! Brandall was confirming Brooksie after her baptism and it just hit me very hard that I had been entrusted with her care and Heavenly Father was well-pleased. I was awe struck by Brandall, not because he is or does anything special, but that he is and continues to be an instrument of God's power. Sure he had done poorly, by me, but had done marvelously in caring for those precious children. It somehow opened me up to learn other great thoughts that changed my life. I know I am a better person for even trying to be there for Brooksie.
