I've received my patriarchal blessing today by Brother Dlls. It was a marvelous experience I've ever felt. This all happened in Virginia Beach, VA. As the day spent on, I've brought my biological father to experience this important blessing. And I'm glad that he came. It's so hard to describe everything that was said but it was spiritually beautiful. All I know that receiving this wonderful blessing will make me a better person now and forever.

I miss you so much and I know I haven't been the best daughter throughout my high school years, but you have been there for me and I love you for that. I may not be there for you in Hawaii, but know that I wish I could spend another day celebrating your birth. I hope Stephen treats you out somewhere fun and exciting. I love you mommy and please be safe! Happy 40th Birthday Mom!
