I am trying to get back in the habit of blogging. Before I go to bed, even though I should be in bed here are blessings from this week. I don’t know it I will remember them all there were so many.
Being home to attend church with our ward.
Talks from two sister in our ward, Louisa Jones who is a brand new young woman and Holly Draney who is the Primary President, on Sister Kristin Yee’s conference talk, that complimented each other well. They reminded me that God is in the details and even when mistakes are made he can use it to help us learn and bless us. Louisa talked about how she was mad when her parents decided they should move a few years ago but Heavely Father has made it work out. Holly brought up the definitions of the words possibility and joy. She also talked about repairing quilts that had things happen to them. Also a talk from Matt Reeves about the power of the priesthood and how it has blessed his life and has preserved his life.
A great lesson in Young Women’s where we talked about doing small acts of service because they matter, seeing how Heavenly Father is blessing and helping you in your life, and blessings from having the priesthood.
Being set apart as the young women’s president for our ward. It’s going to be a great adventure.
So many people expressing their love for our family and the blessing that we all walked away from the accident with injuries that will mend.
The suburban was totaled, but our insurance already paid us for the value of it. It was more than we thought they would for our old vehicle.
Food from family, Glen’s colleagues and neighbors being brought to us to show love and help us focus on recovering.
Glen and Daryl making great improvements in their brains healing from their concussions.
Lucy, Beth, Ruth and I having minor whiplash, soreness and bruising from the crash.
So many people helping us right after the accident. And Jed and his family letting us stay another night at their house and then barrow their van so we could come home.
Having a safe trip to Woodruff ID to meet up with Jed and Jill and give their van back to them today.
Having counselors and the past YW president that took care of the YW activity on Wednesday when I had parent teacher conference dinner to do as well as sick and concussed people at home.
Lucy being able to get a new parking pass for a different vehicle without any troubles at school.
Some not so great things from the week are-
Being in a crash on our first attempt to come home from Idaho a week ago Saturday.
Having to find a new car to replace the totaled suburban.
Glen and Daryl having to deal with concussions. They basically slept the first 3-4 days after the accident.
Having people with injuries that aren’t visible or cast-able, which makes it hard to remember healing takes time and to slow down and be broad for now.

Congratulations on being the young women president for your ward. Every place is Lucky when you agree to join it! I know those young women men are going to be so happy with you. Well… at least as happy as they can be considering hormones. All things are qualified when you're dealing with those , right?
