Larry's favorite scripture is D&C 50:24. Because it is Larry's favorite scripture, Ann Dee chose it for her boys to learn. Listen to Asher:
I've been blessed to receive a lot of light this last week, mainly because I've been able to attend the Reno, Oakland, Sacramento, and St. Paul temples. There is so much light and truth in those buildings. I love it.

Have you ever met someone with a bright personality and a light in their eye? It makes me happy and hopeful to interact with and learn from such people. There really is "hope smiling brightly before us."
I've had so many perfect days lately. It's hard to imagine that there is an even more perfect day yet to come. I guess I'll just have to continueth in God so that light can grow brighter until that perfect day. It's pretty exciting.
There really is something to learning by study and also by faith. Here is Van reciting D&C 109:7
I'm on track with my 2012 goals so far ... Below is a quick summary of what I've done from January to the end of March. One of the major things I accomplished was passing my dissertation prospectus which means I'm now in the thick of preparing for data collection and analysis. I'm happy to have the ball rolling. I hope to finish up and graduate sometime this year. Family Home Evenings:
