Saturday night was the Relief Society General Broadcast and I have to say it was amazing! I drove over with a good friend at five for a wonderful dinner. The men served us ham, potatoes, rolls, salad and some kind of dessert (didn't really eat it - too much other good food). I had the wonderful opportunity to sit with three of my dear friends - Jenn, Ashely and Ashley. It was so much fun to sit and talk about everything - jobs, kids, having babies, lack of sleep, politics, and just enjoy their company. It is amazing how the Lord blesses us. For the first time in a good year or more I feel the blessing of friendship. Now, I'm not saying that I don't have friends - I have many friends, but none of them live even remotely close to me. Since we have moved to Utah I feel the closeness with other women that I have longed for since having Coulson. But that isn't all - I then got to sit and listen to three amazing women of the RS Presidency and Elder Uchtdorf and feel as if they were talking to me and only me. Like I was sitting directly at the foot of the Lord being taught. It was truly an amazing and fortifying night. I returned home feeling more at peace than I have for a while. Now my challenge is to keep that feeling and continually do stuff everyday that allows me that feeling. I hope that all of you sisters had the chance to listen to everything that was said and even if you did or didn't I challenge each of you to listen and read the talks many times because each was for us. We are each amazing and loved daughters of God.
