A dream is a wish your heart makes

Yesterday I young lady I know mentioned that she can't wait to be in her 50's. She was sure that her 50's were going to be her best years. I don't know if my 50's are my best years.

Today I took my daughter to the airport.  She is going to serve a mission in Arkansas for the next 18 months.  This one is hard.  The one kid left at home is super sad... cried and cried.  We can email her and snail mail her but we can't call her.  We will get to… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 84
