Yesterday was a wonderful day in our home. Sarah, who is planning on starting a master’s program at the University of Utah, has worried about having the finances to do so. She has been searching for the last week for a job with no success. Even if she works full time, she will not have enough money to get through school. Yesterday, she found out she had an assistantship that will pay half her tuition and a generous stipend as well.
We were informed that Hyrum won first place in this year’s freedom festival–a fifth win for him in that contest.
But the most eternal blessing was being with Adam in the temple with his bride to be, Sarah Huggard, while she received her endowments. Both she and Adam were glowing with happiness, and Adam had tears running from his eyes. There are not words to accurately describe such an experience. We have not the vocabulary. Suffice it to say that was one of those moments in which time stands still and eternity seems very near.

I think I would say that this was one of those days when the tender mercies of the Lord are truly manifest. It was a great day!
