For a year now Rob and I have been stretched. Our faith in Heavenly Father and his love has grown and our willingness to accept His will has increased. I knew that Rob and I were learning a lot from our experiences but I didn't realize that Holly was learning a lot until recently.
A few weeks ago Rob and I went to the temple. We got in the car to take the kids to my Mom's and asked Holly to say our morning prayer. Without any prompting Holly asked Heavenly Father to bless Rob and I to feel the Holy Ghost in the temple.
Today for morning prayers Holly asked Heavenly Father to bless Rob that he can get the job in New Jersey and then added "but it's ok if he doesn't".
I thought that I had shielded my kids from really understanding what was going on. I guess they listen to family prayers and grown up conversation more than I realized. Holly's faith has strengthened my faith.

What sweet experiences as a mother. Thank you so much for share. I hope he gets the job, too ;)
Erin, that brought tears to my eyes. The faith of a child. I can't believe all that you have gone through in the past year. It's been quite a ride, huh? I hope the job in NJ works out, too. (What would the job be?) :)
It's a job with Johnson and Johnson. It would be a great job. But after the year we have had Heavenly Father must have something very specific in mind for us. So we will see.
