Parental Payday

Last night The Girl received her temple blessings. I was honored to be her escort as she learned a little more about her Heavenly Father's plan for her. She was so prepared and spiritually mature about it all. I still can't  believe she is setting out to share the Gospel as a missionary in a few months. It seems like just days ago she chose to be baptized.

The covenants she has made were made thoughtfully and determinedly. She seemed confident and self assured about all of it. Certainly more than I was when I made those same covenants.

The best part of the night was waiting for her in the celestial room, surrounded with beloved friends and family, and seeing her come in smiling. That must be what heaven is like.  It can only be better when The Boy gets to this point and we can all be there together. I'll give it a couple years and then I'll know.
