Dear Hermanocutiebrownie,

Bryson got two girls' numbers. He is on the hunt.

Aunt Kathi spent the week with us. BEST WEEK EVER! We did two 3000 piece puzzles and one 1000. We are very puzzling! I took her to my old lady party. She got to meet all the ladies. We took her to mutual. It was a find-my-lost-sheep at Walmart activity. We were the cutest ones!

We also took Mason to the temple on Tuesday and then did sealings on Thursday. We were able to do the work for sisters. It made our hearts happy. After we went to lunch in Herriman and they went to the celestial cafe!

Natalie hung out with Benjo all afternoon yesterday, including at his house. It was hard for her to be there and have it not be how it used to be.

Alexa went to festival for choir. She did awesome. She taught the lesson in YWs today. She worked hard to be prepared and to do a good job.

Mason spoke in church and did awesome! We were super impressed with how well he did. He wrote the whole thing and spoke with confidence.

I love you! I'm so proud of you. Heavenly Father and Jesus love you.

Love,

Mom

Remember you are teaching people not lessons. Loved by Heavenly Father, Jesus and me. Help them recognize the Spirit. Do they know what they are feeling? How have you seen Heavenly Father in your life this week? I was feeling completely overwhelmed. So I prayed to have my capacity increased.
