facts of the day


1) christian, our friend charlie, and i went biking on wasatch blvd.
2) the air was brisk...needless to say, i was cold.
2) we rode through an intersection.
3) christian waved at a car in the lane turning right onto wasatch blvd.
4) i thought to myself, "i wonder if he is making sure that older gentleman sees us?"
5) i noticed "that older gentleman" was elder richard g. scott, one of the twelve apostles.
6) i smiled and waved too.
7) i yelled to christian, "that was elder scott!"
8) christian yelled back, "i know! that's why i waved."
9) we watched as elder scott turned into a shopping center on wasatch blvd.
10) we speculated. was he going to dan's to do some grocery shopping or to millcreek bicycles to
purchase a bike?
11) my heart was full of gratitude for the service, elder scott and each of the apostles,
so selflessly give each day of their lives.
12) i was reminded of elder scott's sweet conference talk about the eternal principle of marriage,
and how it helped me want to be a better wife
13) we kept riding our bikes.
14) it didn't get any warmer, so i was basically a popsicle.
15) my feet felt like popsicles at the end of the ride.
16) i like popsicles, so i felt okay about it.

That.is.AWESOME. I'm sure you felt like a popsicle on the outside but a fire on the inside. Totally cool. Thanks for sharing.
