Thankful

So it is Saturday night. I am looking forward to next Saturday night. It will be all over and I'll be home. It is terrible to have to wait for open heart surgery. It gives one way too much time to contemplate.
I have received so many well wishes, so many prayers, I am simply thankful. Last night, an agent (Rich Mesterheide) called to tell me to have a great week-end. He didn't know I was having surgery. He said he just wanted to tell me that I mean a great deal to him and he wanted me to know. He said I was a great Broker.
Yesterday, our Bishop called to tell me he was praying and that he loved having us in the ward.
I talked to Criss. I have been worried about Criss. It was a very hard Sunday for her last week. Mother's Day will always bring her some pain along with the joy.
Today I received a call from my sister Lucy; Then the mailman delivered a card from my beautiful sister Linda. I just can't name everyone without leaving someone out. I am so grateful for my most precious family and good friends. I especially am grateful for my Mother and Father.
Konae is almost here!! She is on the plane. Can you tell I am excited? Thank you to everyone. Thank you, Thank you. I love you. Wish I had a new photo to publish!!
