Today was such a wonderful day!
I love Tallie so much and am so proud of her and her decision to be baptized. She is such a sweet girl with a strong spirit. I love TJ so much. I love him because he is a worthy priesthood holder. I loved seeing Tallie with her dad today in their white clothing. I loved the giddyness and excitement in Tallies face as she was about to be baptized. There were literally beams of light shining from her face. I loved how proud and happy and emotional Tj was today as he baptized his oldest daughter. It was such a sweet moment that I will never forget. And I hope Tallie will always remember it too. Tallie had asked me to give the talk and at first I was kind of really nervous thinking about all of the people and that it wasn't just Tallie's special day but 2 other kids as well and I felt kind of a weight on my shoulders because I wanted it to be special for them too. I didn't plan to get emotional, but I did. I couldn't help it. As I was talking to the kids about these simple truths about leaving heaven and our Heavenly Father missing us, wanting us to come home to Him, it just confirmed my own testimony and just how real it is. I was hoping that I could listen to the spirit and that Tallie and the kids would feel it and I hope they did. But I know for sure that I did and that I felt my Heavenly Father's love today and I felt the Holy Ghost wrap his arms around me.
