MOTHERS ARE FOREVER

A friend is someone special..A person in whom to confide...Who knows your inner weaknesses, Yet is willing to stand by your side.

A bit more unique is a sister, and the comradery she shares; Through days of sunshine and darkness, You feel that she really cares.

Then a friend may run from trouble, A sister may leave you behind. They both may prove a bit faithless, when other interests they find.

But a mother is forever..From the moment your life had its start..From birth into eternity...You'll always remain in her heart!

She's friend..sister and confidant..One who'll forsake you never; No one in life will love you more..For a mother is forever!

This month is Mother's Day, We have been told we should Honor thy Father and thy Mother that thy days may be long upon the land that the Lord thy God has given thee.

Dearest Mother,

Sometimes I forget, Mom, to say important things----like "I Love You" I do.....and on your special day I want to thank you for being you. Thanks for being generous and teaching me what it means to be a friend...Thanks for your laughter and for teaching me how to smile at life. Even the tears we've shared helped me see that strength can grow from sadness. But most of all...even though I sometimes forget to say it.....Thank you for your love. What a legacy we have as your children and grandchildren. I am so thankful for the blessed opportunity I have had to share lifes experiences with you and for your Christ-like example dealing with these experiences. Happy Mothers Day Your Loving Daughter Trudy

Happy 90th Birthday Grandpa Johnson

Grandma Johnson had us over for a nice corned-beef and cabbage dinner, to celebrate Grandpa Johnson's 90th birthday. Grandma has worked very hard to keep the memories alive and to help us understand our ancestory. We sang through the songs Dad would sing to us as we grew up. We caught the vision of detailed record keeping. Entries from Dad's journals were shared, one from now Prophet Thomas S. Monson who set Dad apart as Stake President in Boise, Idaho.
When asked what advice Dad would give us as a faithful, enduring to the end father, he raised his arm pointing upward and said, "Stay on the road, Stay on the road, Stay on the road", (Which road), "The road to Right". What great advice from our 90 year old Father and grandfather, who has stayed on the road.

Tyler's Baptism March 1, 2008

Tyler was baptized on Saturday March 1, 2008. I am so grateful that Trudy, Grandma and Grandpa Johnson were able to come to Tyler's baptism. Thank you for making such a special day even more special!

I loved every moment on Saturday and made sure I didn't stress too much! Tyler was so excited to have all his friends and family around him. Thank you to Grandpa Greg for coming and being apart of our special weekend. Here are some pictures, How blessed I feel to have gotton a 4th generation picture! We enjoyed every bit of that day.

Love to all Kim
