Happy Easter

It's a beautiful morning in the Salt Lake valley. Happy Easter morning to all! I awakened, this morning, with a feeling of renewal. I am grateful for sleep and the opportunity to rest. Last evening, Becky and I got to go to the Hale Centre Theater, in West Valley City, Utah. We watched their production of Zorro. The music was good and the cast was high energy. We had a lot of fun. I thought about the importance of dating even though we've been married for over seventeen years. I looked at her, many times throughout the evening and realized that her beauty has only increased, not only in my eyes, but also in my heart. We are no longer young kids. I looked at her and felt thankful for all that she has done, and all that she continues to do to richly bless my life and the lives of our four children. I wondered, silently, how some people go through life without someone to share it with, and that they can adore. I am so thankful for this wonderful gift in my life. I have a prayer in my heart that this Easter day will be one of rich blessing to all. I give thanks for everything that I have. It is His life that we are trying to emulate. Jesus Christ came to the earth to do what nobody else could do. He did it because He loves us.
