Silver Lining

Okay - I found some. A few days ago a cute sister in my ward called to check up on me. I wasn't home so she left a message. This is the same sister who used to serve as the RS president when I was in the presidency, has kids much older than ours, but still somehow connects with us. We love her . . . She gave the boys all of their football uniforms. Anyway.. . .I felt prompted to call her back today - and got to leave a message. In that message I laughingly said that all is well over here and that my only issue was trying to get up the guts to clean the bathrooms that the smell of little boy pee in the bathrooms was making me gag. Ugh. Literally - there was dried pee on the floor and somehow the walls - how do they do that?

Well - today she showed up at my front door - to clean my bathrooms. She said that she couldn't do much to help me but this she could do. She lovingly got on her hands and knees and cleaned our bathrooms. I don't think I have ever truly been served with Christlike love like that. Thank you Emily. You made my day. . . I'm sitting here trying not to cry through all of the prego hormones flowing through me. I am just so touched and flattered that I mean enough to her to be given a gift like that. I will definitely remember this for the rest of my life. . . .
