Find out who your friends are by Tracy Lawrence
Last week, I was feeling pretty homesick. My parents are serving a mission for our church and are no longer a phone call away. Most of my family lives in Washington State and I was really missing all the time they get to spend together. I do have a brother and his family in Wickenburg, but even that seemed too far away and a brother in Florida - I can only imagine his homesickness. I listened to all these songs and realized I have a pretty great family here in Laveen. Friends that are as close as family who I depend on and trust on a daily basis.
Our hearts and prayers are with the Palfreemans as they deal with the loss of Candace's mom. We love you and know we are here for you. I couldn't be more grateful for the Gospel of Jesus Christ at a time like this. Without it, I wouldn't have such wonderful friends with the same values and be able to find peace in a time of trial and stress. We love you Candace and Scott.
And to another friend who is undergoing surgery on her eye somewhere back east. A couple different families had her kids and I was amazed - although I shouldn't have been - by everyone's attitude. Noone complained to help out, we'd drop everything to help out and so did these families by adding more kids to their house for a few days. They took the kids to church and were happy to serve, although it probably didn't feel like service - it's just what you do. :) Much love Britt!
