Dear Hermanabanana,

I made peach cobbler today. I am turning into a culinary master. OK, it wasn't as good as it could've been, but I still proud of myself for trying. I even took Bonnie a plate.

Mason was the star of his volleyball team. When he served the ball, I yelled to everyone "that's my boy!" Yes, I was prideful, but you should've seen that serve it was amazing!

Benjo asked Natalie to homecoming with a few of her favorite things. She replied as an overweight, hairy pizza delivery man. 😂

I was called to be the sunbeam teacher. I will be teaching with Staci Dart. At the end of the visit Brother Hoskin asked us what he could pray for us for? It was such a cool experience. Thinking about what we really needed and what we wanted the most, feeling his sincerity and desire to bless and serve us.

I love you! I'm proud of you!

Love,

Mom

(Appended notes) Trying to remember allowed God to show me what He had done. Heavenly Father can make you more. The adversary can make you less. Chasten and chaste. Purified through correction. "Divine chastening has at least three purposes: One, to persuade us to repent, two, to refine and sanctify us, and three, at times to redirect our course in life to what God knows is a better path." -Elder D. Todd Christofferson "He then said to me something I have never forgotten: 'President, if you have not been rebuked lately by the Holy Ghost as you are praying, then you need to improve your prayers.'" -Elder David A. Bednar Hyrum didn't have money, he didn't have experience, but he did have a shovel. He got to work. Focus on what you can do. This is what Faith looks like. Doctrine and Covenants 97:8-9. Relax, take deep breath, I'm going to be with you all day - Love Jesus. How am I representing the Savior?
