of President Hinkley. I have read thru so many wonderful stories and peoples feeling on him. So I just wanted to share a few things since today a new Prophet will be named.
I LOVED to look at Pres Hinkley. He was always filled with the spirit of God. I loved the tenderness he had every time he spoke to of his wife. An dI loved her she reminded me so much of my own grandma. As don was looking on KSL the site started to get really slow and he went back to the main page and the new front page was on saying President Hinkley had passed. After that within 5 minutes the page was completely overloaded and you couldn't even get on the site any more. my first thought was a sinking in my heart but then I was lifted up and happy! He was finally together with his wife!! WOW!! What an amazing gift we have from our Lord! Eternal families ROCK!! I went to a funeral of a friend in December right after Christmas. hmm maybe it was the first week in Jan. anyway it was really hard for me. She was 33. just a year older than me and she had two kids. I was really sad but after listening to all the wonderful things her Mother spoke of I was uplifted. She would finally be back with her sister who had passed away. and now she is onthe other side building her eternal home for her DH and beautiful kids!!
so today they will announce the new Prophet which should be Pres Monson. so funny thing at church yesterday... but here is a back story .. A few weeks ago I decide dto make my kids some church activity books so I went online and printed up some word search dot to dot and other game centered on LDS themes. One of the pages I did was some "baseball cards" with all teh apostles pictures and a little bit about them when they were ordained and some of their hobbies ect. well I didn't cut them I just added them to the books full sheet with three on each page. SO I always would ask Owen who the first presidency is. Well with pres Hinkley I would ask who it is and he would always say "follow the Prophet " lol then I wouldsay that is Pres Hinkley and he would say it and we would go to the next (Pres Monson). so yesterday we were doing them and I told him again President Hinkley died and lived with Jesus now and was about to tell him Pres Monson was going to be the next president. He pointed at Pres Monson and said he needs a train and I was huh? he said it's Tom he needs a train (We hadn't even got to Pres Monson yet) I realized he had associated 'Tom' with Thomas the Tank Engine. and I started laughing. But Hey he Remembers Pres Monsons name because of it and that is sweet. he then wen ton to ask what President Eyrings name was.
