Guess What !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know that you will never guess so I will tell you. We have been invited to go to Mexico with my Sister and her Husband (on a cruise) They got a deal and so did we. We just decided last week. We are looking forward to reading some books , seeing new places, and enjoying the sun and the pools onboard. It is actually our 1st real cruise. We went before but the ship was not one of the big ones . In fact it was dwarfed by the other cruise lines .
We both mark another year on this earth this year-looking forward we realize we still have much to do, so we are trying to hurry to get it all done.

The days are getting shorter and the government still thinks that day=light savings time will save us all from the dark. Jason was right when he was 6, "they can't change the sun, what do they think they are doing ?"

The one very sane things Arizona has done is not to give in to the whole craze of time changes.

My Mother

My Mother had a birthday last week. I got to be with her and enjoy her personality. We had to remind her every hour or so what month and day it was, to which each time she would say" Oh, it's my birthday!! How old am I" , We would tell her and then she would sigh "Oh My!" What a blessing I have to be her daughter. What an example she has always been, sharing her strong testimony, serving with diligence. She was always there for me(us, my sisters and I).
I remember having many conversations with her sitting around the kitchen table or sitting on the end of her bed.
She always told us that we couldn't do anything wrong and say "we did not know better, as she had taught us".. . She now says we were perfect and never did anything to disappoint her .

I am convinced that she is suffering from a wonderful form of dementia. It is a blessing that comes to parents. Maybe it is part of that eternal love that we also feel from our Heavenly Father- who " remembers no more", when we repent. THe blessing of parents is such a gift we must all acknowledge. i Love you Mom and Dad .
