heaven just got a little bigger

Early this morning I said goodbye to my best friend as Heaven received one of it's most beloved angels.

August 24th at 5:05 am Judith Leavitt took her last breath. 

As I sat there and stared at her, hoping, praying even pleading that should she would take another breath I looked at her and saw the face of Christ and I knew it was her time to go. He was waiting for her, along with so many others. I miss you already grams. I know you've probably already talked everybody's ears off, you're wooping them in a game of Greedy and you're sippin' on a Diet Coke WITH lemon. I don't know how I'm going to be able to go on without you, but I know I have to because you wouldn't want it any other way! You will live on in me and I will always strive to make you proud.

You are my greatest friend

&

I'll miss you every single day

Thank you for always being there for me. You always encouraged me to reach my full potential, you believed in my dreams more than I did. You built my testimony through your example and always radiated with the Savor's love. I don't even know how to describe you to people because words never do you justice. You truly were a little piece of Heaven on Earth and I feel beyond blessed to be called your granddaughter

The Summer Heavenly Father Brought Me To My Knees

I am a strong believer that every experience, whether good or bad that we go through happens for a reason. Every moment of joy or laughter, moments that will stay with us forever. Every hardship and trial, that pushes us to our very limits & the very test of faith that brings you to your knees.

This summer consisted of all of that for me.

My spirit was completely rocked, my testimony shaken, and my faith  weakened..

but I never would of thought I'd come out
S T R O N G E R 

in the end.

Sometimes you need to be brought to your knees to realize that's exactly where you needed to be all along.

I'm so grateful for Heavenly Father and his perfect love he has bestowed upon all of us. I don't know what I'd ever do without the gospel in my life & my amazing family and friends. I am so beyond blessed with more than I could ever deserve
