Some of the tender mercies for our week was that:
Heather was able to obtain two job interviews with US Bank in Cincinnati for this week. They are at two different bank locations, both US Bank. Brandon keeps enjoying his job at Nielsen Marketing Research. He says that all of the people working with him are 35 or younger. I know they are all young, sharp, on-the-ball men. They love their ward. The people are very welcoming. They have callings - Heather is the 10 year old Webelos leader, and Brandon is the 11 year old Scout leader in the Highland Heights Ward of the Cincinnati Ohio Stake. We are so grateful they are settling in and happy. We can't wait to go there for a visit, someday.
Derek was able to go down to Provo to visit some missionaries from his Boston Mission. He took Gary Breckenridge. They got to take Jose through the Provo City Temple Open House. Derek is receiving a lot of help, trying to get a good internship for this coming summer. My friend, Stephanie Peterson, is trying to help him in Brea, California. Derek and Todd Anderson, cousin, and thier team for Todd's Ghana Ties Company, applied to present at a big entrepreneur contest in Boise on April 1. It is sponsored by Zion's Bank and Boise State University. They were accepted. I believe they are one of ten entrepreneurs that were selected!
Nikole found out she was assigned the Fall Spring track at BYU. She is trying to make the best of that. She has enjoyed helping with Distinguished Young Women's Friday night. She was able to play a piano piece, L'Orage at the program, because she was last year's second attendent. She also helped Alta, be her back-stage mom.
Elizabeth has been taking Vitamin D which Dr. Redd told her to do, and to do the stretches that Dan Streubel gave her, and she still has some pain in her legs and feels numb at the end of practice, but she's doing it and I feel she has been blessed in it. Young men are started to flock around Elizabeth, and her 16th birthday is not until June 30.
Carl is learning how to pass the sacrament correctly and is doing Scouts. He is excelling at violin with Melanie Moulton, and is excelling at snow boarding with TMS Winter Sports Program.
I feel the Lord's hand helping me in my work at the hospital. He has helped me so much just the past week for nursing staff meeting and with some presentations I had to do. I feel better about a relationship with a daughter who has been struggling. Blaine blesses my life as he helps a lot with house chores. I had a fun day in Rexburg Friday, was able to get a permanent in my hair and buy some groceries. I'm very excited for my fun week-end with my mother and Kortny this Friday.
I have been studying about Eve. I learned that Eve made the choice in the Garden that would bless all of us, at least bless others, not just be good for her own interest. When we make choices that bless others, they are usually somewhat difficult but better, and we know they are the higher, better choice. I am grateful for her. Linda Prows gave that lesson, or at least about mothers, women from Elder Holland's General Conference talk.
