December was so busy it is almost a blurr...but a WONDERFUL blurr! It is time I try to get caught up so we can have record of these wonderful memories. We had such a wonderful week welcoming home our Elder Ben! The night he came home, we went to our Stake President's office, Pres. Raines, for Ben to be released as a full time missionary. It was truly a sacred experience. Pres. Raines asked Ben to share his Testimony in Chinese... it was so heartfelt and tender. Though we couldn't understand a word... our Spirit's felt the truth of the Testimony he bore. One of the last things Pres. Raines said to Ben was that he felt impressed to express that Ben is the glue that holds our family together. He is the connection between the older brother's and the younger brother's. His words couldn't have been more true! Ben has always been the peacemaker in our home, and we have all felt that peace since he has been home.
On Christmas Eve, Tyler and his family arrived!
