Have you ever held your crying friend in your arms and not known what to say? It is one of the worst feelings in the world. You would give anything to have the answer for them. You would give anything to take that pain away from them. But you aren't omnipotent. You plain don't have an answer. So you just hold them and shed a few tears while your holding them.
I wish I had the answer of why we have the trials we do. I wish I could explain it.
But it comes down to trusting the Lord. It is going to be the hardest thing in the world to just trust him. But if you can have the faith to turn your trial to him and trust him, can he not make the burden lighter?
The Lord will not make a promise he won't keep, so long as we hold up our end of the deal. It is so hard to see with our mortal eyes.
I can't make sense of it. I'm just trying to learn how to trust.
I guess sometimes all you can do is hold someone and tell them how much you love them and that it is going to be okay.

Little Haunts
So last week we had little haunts down at "This is The Place Heritage Park". And it was great fun to go down and work it.
I got to conduct the train the first 2 days I was down there. It was so fun, the school wasn't as fun when you have to worry about trick or treaters; but it was still so fun. If I could have anything it would be to work at the park the rest of my life.
While Holly was taking me over to Smoot so I could get a shirt to where on the Train cliff came up and at seeing me said "Welcome home, Mandy" It was so good to be home. That's what it felt like. I loved seeing everyone I could.
While down there I stayed at my sisters while she was out of town, she told me I was welcome to any of the food in the house...except my sister doesn't have any food in the house. So I had to bring some down food.
I got lucky the first night and Diamond Jim invited me to have dinner with his family, (partly so i could come make him cookies) It was fun chatting with Jim. He showed me the guns he has and showed me different kinds of bullets. He knows something about everything I swear.
Friday night I spent at Kim's. I watched five episodes of Burn Notice at her place. Mom also got on-line and saw my bank account. Then informed me she put some money in and to go buy some food.
Saturday they moved me into the school house and its not as fun when you have to keep track of which children had gotten candy.
It was still really hard to leave to come back to Logan. I miss it so much down there. But I'll be back next summer and it will be wonderful :)
