John Derek came home from school happy. But within minutes was getting frustrated. Nothing was going right and he was mad. I finally sent him to his room. A little while later he came down much more calm and said that he needed to talk to me. He remembered that if he gets mad afterschool it is because something went wrong and school and he needs to talk about it. So we went and got ice cream and picked Elizabet up from practice. I was so proud of him for remembering to come talk to me. I had even forgotten that. But we talked, he got it out and then we had good discussions while we drove.
That evening I gave John Derek a hair cut. In the middle of the cut he said, "I want to marry a wife that can cut hair, or maybe I can cut the hair, but one of us can cut hair." We then discussed what he wanted in a wife, "Someone who reads her scriptures, is strong in the church, is good." I was so impressed with this desire for a righteous wife. We talked about how he needs to make himself worthy of such a wife. He is such a good boy and I am so blessed to be his mom. I look forward to his future.

"and with all them that were afflicted in any manner; and he did heal them every one as they were brought forth unto him."
I
feel like each of us is afflicted with something. My afflictions are
not outwardly physical, but if Christ came and said I will heal your
sick I would want to be healed of my depression. I wonder what made
people go to Christ or not.
