In the Temple

Yesterday afternoon we spent a lovely afternoon in the temple. We arrived in time to join Heidi, Nona's daughter and her husband and son to be sealed in the temple. It was great to look around the room and see all Nona's children with their spouses. I thought to myself that she must have waited a very long time for this day to come. The sealing was beautiful and the instruction was very insightful as the sealer talked to us all about the Covenant that Hiedi and Rich were about to make. Then in came little red headed Isaiah. They had him kneel at th Alter and we all chuckled as all we could see peeking over the alter was a little set of eyes and a lot of red hair. I once had a sealer tell us that he had never seen a child act up in the sealing room and this was the same. He came right in, knelt down and then after they were sealed his father held him up to look in the mirrors and he had that 'amazing' look on his face that little children get. We all hugged, kissed, and then met Nona and her family at Nona's house. It was a great day. One that will never be forgotten.
