Last week, Dec. 11th, to be exact my dear mother called me to tell me and my husband that she has been diagnosed with a brain tumor. It was devastating! I was a hysterical mess. On. Fri. the 12th I was still a mess and I made a last minute decision to go to the temple. There was peace, hope and answers to prayers. I felt reassured and hopeful and full of faith that my Mom would be ok.. And she is. So I made some arrangements with credit card in hand and the kids and I are flying to Utah tomorrow. My Mom will have surgery on Fri. the 19th at 3:00 PM. We will be returning on the 23rd so we can spend Christmas here. Please pray for us that the kids and I will have a safe and uneventful travel. And please pray for my Mom, Sherrie Johnson, that she will have peace, comfort, faith and a healthy and speedily recovery. Check out her blog at www.sherriejohnson.blogspot.com. Her posts are full of faith, optimism, and prayer and her main focus is on the Savior Jesus Christ.
Happy Holidays to all!
