LAST NIGHT MY SISTER LUCY SENT ME A TEXT WITH THE QUOTE ABOVE. I DON'T KNOW IF SHE THOUGHT MUCH OF IT BUT IT WAS SOMETHING I REALLY NEEDED. SHE JUST MADE ME FEEL SO BLESSED TO HAVE THE SIBLINGS I DO. THE LAST 3 YEARS OF MY LIFE WERE REALLY ROCKY. DURING ALL OF IT I REMEMBER FEELING LIKE I HAD LET MY FAMILY DOWN SO BAD. BUT THE FACT THAT THEY ALL CAME TOGETHER AND KEPT MY HEAD ABOVE WATER MADE ME REALIZE HOW GRATEFUL I AM, THAT WE CAN BE TOGETHER FOREVER.THERE WERE SO MANY TIMES THAT I FELT LIKE I WAS AT THE END OF MY ROPE AND I'D OPEN MY HOTMAIL AND HAVE AN EMAIL FROM ONE OF MY BROTHERS. I SWEAR ON MY WORST DAYS ONE OF MY AMAZING SISTERS WOULD ALWAYS END UP CALLING AND I'D HANG UP FEELING BETTER. MY DAD WAS ON HIS MISSION WHEN I FOUND OUT I WAS PREGNANT AND I JUST REMEMBER WANTING A BLESSING FROM HIM SO BAD. MY BROTHER TONY WHO WAS THE FIRST TO FIND OUT, FILLED IN FOR MY DAD AND GAVE ME THE MOST AMAZING AND POWERFUL BLESSING. STILL TO THIS DAY, I KNOW THAT BLESSING GAVE ME THE STRENGTH I NEEDED TO GET THROUGH MY PREGNANCY. I KNOW I COULD HAVE ASKED ANY OF MY BROTHERS OR BROTHER-IN-LAWS FOR THAT AND THEY WOULD HAVE BEEN WORTHY TO USE THEIR PRIESTHOOD POWER TO BLESS ME. I KNOW THAT THERE ARENT MANY PEOPLE WHO ARE SO BLESSED IN THAT WAY! I JUST FELT AN OVERWHELMING FEELING OF GRATITUDE TODAY FOR THE SIBLINGS THE LORD HAS BLESSED ME WITH AND THE MEN AND WOMEN THEY CHOSE TO MARRY. I'M SO THANKFUL FOR THE EXAMPLES THEY EACH ARE TO ME AND THAT I CAN TURN TO THEM FOR ADVICE. I LOOK UP TO EACH OF THEM SO MUCH AND WOULD NOT BE HERE WITHOUT THEIR LOVE AND SUPPORT. THEY REALLY HELPED ME FIND MY STRENGTH AND STILL DO. I LOVE THEM!
