When I was watching the press conference, President Eyring and President Uchtdorf looked for all the world like two straight, strong columns—wide, white pillars—flanking President Monson. I felt really good about them. <BR/><BR/>I I EEE. I agree with you. I wouldn't trade this time for any other (bad days notwithstanding). <BR/><BR/>JAMIE. Yesterday was Super Gram day for me—Gram's birthday. The election paled in comparison . . . .<BR/><BR/>LA YEN. Hey, score! That's at least a decade, maybe two, of good fun!

This is like a special present from Heavenly Father to me--I get to mock my father in law for the next administration.

Monson three times in my life so far, so it's cool to know that I've had those experiences with him and now he's the prophet. <BR/><BR/>I will keep them in my prayers as well.i i eeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11965669520527591687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8236210.post-29121049699804852162008-02-04T17:12:00.000-07:002008-02-04T17:12:00.000-07:00I already feel a great love for President Monson, ...I already feel a great love for President Monson, and his ability to reach out to the one. He's a man of simple service and great compassion. He's thoughtful with his unique poetic style. And I love his dry sense of humor.<BR/><BR/>Presiden Eyring is so heart-felt. President Uchtdorf, radiates strength. <BR/><BR/>God bless them, all three!Am'n2Deephttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08024746416520371037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8236210.post-55032884351500864292008-02-04T16:29:00.000-07:002008-02-04T16:29:00.000-07:00Heya, Debra!

Great, I mean, for people like me who don't know how to use telephones. I'm happy you're around.<BR/><BR/>MIrjam, that's funny, because as we watched the press conference, I laughed when Elder U. walked in as the obvious 2nd counselor and snickered to Rob that now it'll all be even more true. I think that joke is permanently part of our family vocabulary now. Isn't it nice to know you have achieved a measure of immortality that way?Geohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13928364622023202837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8236210.post-40212076239522638982008-02-04T16:14:00.000-07:002008-02-04T16:14:00.000-07:00And one of then is German....

It was so wonderful to see you and Rob at the Christmas music fireside, even if for a brief minute. But I sure miss your pretty face and remember fondly the time we spent as neighbors. <BR/><BR/>The principle you mention here of "wearing out" your life has been on a lot of our minds and I appreciate so much those that are willing to do that. I have some work to do in that regard (I just wrote about this last night, in fact). <BR/><BR/>Thanks for your thoughts!Debrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13735013592389681469noreply@blogger.com
