I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears, behold I will heal thee.

Packing it UP!

So we started packing up the things we don't use daily. . .it seems strange. This place really does feel like home and I am surprised that the end of our 2 year adventure is coming to an end. I figured I would brag about my husband a little, because I think he is pretty incredible in sooooooo many ways.

I am not sure if I have shared his accomplishments at school yet. . .if I have then it's worth repeating.

Bryan's current GPA is 3.93
Bryan's attendance is 99.06%
He has earned Student Of The Course (S.O.C.) 10 times. To get this he has to be have the best overall grade and attendance in his classes.
All of these take hard work and dedication. Most students may never earn an S.O.C. in school. So it is incredible he has accomplished it 10 times.

What makes him even more incredible. . .he works a full time job too. He goes to work 36+ hours a week and goes to school 25 hours. Yeah, he's pretty amazing :)
He is in his final month of school and he is counting down the days. He has been working really hard and is hoping to earn the "TOP TECH" in his Yamaha program. They only give that to one student per Yamaha course. I think he has a good chance of getting that.

My Testimony

It's hard to put into words how I feel toward my Heavenly Father and the Savior. I have so many reasons to be thankful for what I have gone through & endured. Because of my trials in life I have gained a strong testimony of Faith. I have always had Faith in the Lord and in Prayer. As I faced the decision to get a double lung transplant I had to rely on faith to make the choice.....By listening to the spirit, I was guided to Pittsburgh where my life was saved. I believe prayers are answered. I have always tried to follow the philosophy of this: If I do what the Lord expects of me, he will give me what I want & need. That has always worked for me. I Believe in MIRACLES..........My life on this earth is a miracle- I prayed on my knees for years to be healed from my lung disease. I knew that through a priesthood blessing (if it was God's will) I could be healed. So many times I thought he would heal me instantly...my faith was tested as I continued to get sick and no cure was in my future. I turned to prayer....I talked to my Heavenly Father, I cried to him and he heard me and he healed me by guiding me to Pittsburgh and guiding the surgeons hands. I learned humility, and thankfulness. I realized that we need others to lean on and we are supposed to strengthen each others testimonies. I learned that the hardest things we'll do are usually the greatest blessings in our life. I was able to experience a lot of things during surgery and I know I had comforting angels in my ICU room. THe Lord knows each of us by name and he will never leave our side. We need to remember to stay close to him and have Faith that he is watching over us. I know this for a fact! I know that following the gospel will bring us true happiness- the world will tell us otherwise, but I know I am truely happy & living the gospel has brought me that. Amen
