Today I was called to teach the Sunbeam class. I don't know if our Heavenly Father has a sense of humor, or if I need to learn the value of patience. All I can say is that I'm scared to death! The boy behind us during sacrament meeting was realeased and as I was called to stand, he laughed and said, "good luck!!" Not what I wanted to hear! Hopefully, I will be able to keep their attention and teach them something....we'll see!

I know the pieces fit...
Last night, I got a call and the girl on the line said "I think you're my sister." I thought it was a joke until she started telling me things only my biological mother could know. We talked for about 20 minutes and then she called my biological mother and gave her my number! We talked and cried! It was amazing. I have two half sisters and one half brother.
I called my Mom and Dad and they were (of course) very supportive. My Mother has always helped me in my decision for me to find her. I will post more later, as soon as I get more information.
As for now...the pieces are coming together!
