My Horse Lady

What A Night, I'll start at 5:30 Wednesday Evening, We went to Jed’s basketball game where we played Pine View High School one of our biggest rivals and lost both games. On the way home we stopped to feed horses, Dash was running around like he would if lady was gone and I couldn't see lady and thought that maybe she was dead as we have been worried about her for a while now and don't know how long she will be here. I was really worried about her but finally found that she was alright. When we got home every one was tried and hungry and so I didn't say anything. Then during dinner Jake (1) throw up every thing and so Mom and Dad and I cleaned up the mess. After they where done taking care of Jake they didn't come back down so I didn't say anything. Then we did dishes and put on our Pajamas and went to Kiss Mom and Dad like every night. We got talking but they where talking to Jed about the game so I didn't interrupt and went to bed and said my prayers but told Heavenly Father that It's okay and that Lady could go and It was probably time for her to go and to tell her that I love her if she goes tonight. I then got in bed. I was still crying when mom came in and she wanted to know hat was wrong and so I told her about lady and the rest of it. I t is know 10:55 and Mom says lets say a prayer and then she called Dad who was still talking to Jed and he said another Prayer then told me to say one to let her Go. After we all went and got dressed again and went over and spent the next hour moving lady to a dryer place and praying for her to be able to go soon and be out of her pain. She was still there this morning but probably wont be there for long.
i know that there are good people that can take care of her after she has gone and that she will be happy there but I still will miss her. I love you Lady!

She's still here

Last night I dreamed that lady was gone but she was still there and I’m glad. I’m hopefully going to go on a horseback ride but can’t find anyone to go with. Oh well. I am excited to go skiing on Monday with some homeschoolers in our area but hope that Lady will still be here. But I don’t think that she will, She eyes have been cloudy for a while now and she seems restless and not excited anymore for anything like she used to. I hope that she won’t hurt to bad when she goes and that I can help her but I don’t know much about that. I’ve got to go give Sam a piano lesson but I’ll write back soon and keep you posted!

President Hickley

Do we read our Book of Mormon or do we just leave it on the self collecting dust? I had a lesson in YW’s about the Book of Mormon. We talked about how our Testimonies grow when we read the Book of Mormon, I have recently read the Book of Mormon, I started on the December 15th and ended on January 12th. It was very neat. I still learned about the Book of Mormon today. The Book of Mormon is the keystone to our religion and without the Book of Mormon our religion would crumble. I am thankful for the Book of Mormon and know that it was written for our time.
This past week I have been thinking about President Hinckley and how he has been the prophet most of my life. Sister Nuttel tells this story about President Hickley: “When we are in heaven and are talking to all of our friends from the Premortal World some of them will have been with Moses when he parted the red Sea or with Joseph in Egypt and someone will ask, what prophet’s time where you? And when you say President Hinckley there will be a hush over the whole building and they will all bow at your feet.” We were saved for these times because we are the most righteous. I know that this is true.
President Hinckley’s 6 bee’s are Be Grateful, Be Humble, Be Smart, Be Clean, Be true, Be prayerful. These bees should be and are some of my standards that I follow, THANK YOU PRESIDENT HINCKLEY!!!

Jumping again today was the blessing of my cousin Bode Paulsen Linford. There was so much snow in Salt Lake – where the blessing was – that they cancelled church so we went and had the blessing at Keri’s house. It was very cool!

Book of mormon Testomony - President Hinkley

I haven't posted for a while I know, sorry!
Since I posted last, I have tried to post a few times but haven't finished any of them.
I have been doing a few things this month that I should follow up on,
Jan. 11th and 12th I went to a Book Of Mormon Read-A-Thon where we read the Book Of Mormon from Alma 1 to Ether than read Moroni, I was so Cool!!! I did it a my Faith Value Project for YW's, What they did was they had different speakers came and read the book of Mormon , some where slow others where more interesting. In Helaman Dad went to read and told of the 2000 Stripling Warriors in Alma 53:20-21 it states: "And they where all young men and they where exceedingly valiant for courage, and also for strengthand activity; but behold they where men who where true at all timesi whatsoever thimg they where intrusted. Yea, they were men of truth and soberness, for they had been taught to keep the commandments of god and to walk uprightly brfore him." theres where good men who didn't even fear death for they where taught by there mothers that if they trusted God that he would deliver them. I am grateful for there example. When we got to third Nephi it talks about when Jesus is born and the signs of his comeing, any whey they showed the testament and had neet sound effects is was so cool and I felt the spirit so strong I know that it is true and that he will come again and that he is risen and that we to can be risen in the last day. I am thankful for this truth.

We just heard that President Hinkley died today, January 27th, 2008 I know that he went to live with heavenly father again and that he is enjoying the reunion with his Wife that died a few years ago, I am so grateful that we know that we can still be lead that through the keys that the Quaram of the twelve that we can still have a prophet today. I hope that I can live righteously so that I can return again some day. I love the Savior and I love President Hinkley.

Got to go feed horses, be back tomorrow.

This week I had the BEST time with my Mom.
We went to a training to be able to teach a class about the “7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens”. This class was so fun even though all of the people there beside me and Mom were teachers at some kind of School.  The class was about how we all have to Balance our lives and between all of our rules and about being a great teenager. It was really fun. I learned How important it is to Have Balance in our lives. I am Grateful to have such a neat Mom that I can talk to and is my Beast Friend

Hi, Well I have so many thing on my mind right now, I am thinking about my horse Lady who is not doing good wondering how long she is going to hang on, I am hoping that I can get hay for the lest amount of money, and wondering if I am supposed to buy this horse that Carol, my friend has been taking care of for this guy named Wally who just died and his wife says to sell her for what ever she can get out of her. I have been working on my high school classes that I am taking from BYU independent study. My Mom has got us signed up for a class that certifies you to teach the 7 habits for highly effective teens class. I need to write some things for my personal progress requirements and so here they are:
Faith #4: I love the Savior and I know that he loves me, I am grateful that he took upon us our sins so that we can repent and live with him again, I love him, I hope that i can return to live with him again. At the last supper that Savior took the bread and broke it and blessed it and said unto his apostles eat in remembrance of my body. every time that I take the sacrament I renew my baptismal covenants, I am grateful for that opportunity.
Faith #7: Tithing is also very important, We listened to a talk by Mary Cook and she talked about how it's not about how much tithing that you pay but that it's how much faith you put with it, i think that when we don;t pay tithing we are not only robbing God but we are also robbing ourselves, because when we pay tithing we receive blessings and love from our heavenly father.
I think that we are all ably to chose what we do in life but not our consequences.
