This is the song that has no words...

Dear Readers,

Do you ever feel like singing, no matter what the song is? Just sing, whether it has words or not? Well, that brings up the song that gives us our title for the day. Voice Male came out with a CD entitled "Kid Stuff" with different songs that kids have sung or like to sing along with. One of the songs, obviously, has a chorus full of non-sense words and the verses are all about how you don't need words to sing. So, sing your heart out! Even if you don't know the words!

Speaking of Voice Male, they are a great musical group. I love listening to them because they have such elaborate styles and voices of music that anyone will like at least one of their songs. They sing hymns in a way that makes you want to sing them. They sing party songs like "Celebration" and "Breakfast at Tiffany's." You can even find songs from Collin Raye that they sing very well. Go look them up. They have at least 7 albums that you might like.

The best part about this title/blog post is having no real point what-so-ever. I really wanted to write, but I couldn't think of what to write about. The day I've had has been pretty fun. I took a bunch of stuff to DI to donate and then went to play ultimate Frisbee with Jeremy and Caleb. I met some of their friends that we played with as well. Dale needs to excercise more, that is certain.

Mom is doing well now. She is home and eating real food, so she's almost back to normal. Remember to keep her in your prayers, though! Keep having fun where ever you are, readers! :)

Dear Readers, Ok, so I can't fit the entire title into the title box. It's a good song, go look it up: "You make me smile." The title can apply to anyone, I've found. The rest of the lyrics would probably refer to a best friend or a significant other, but anyone can make you smile. They all have the own way of doing it. Some are just funny all the time and you can't help smiling when you're around that person. I know some who take care of people so well that you just smile when they're doing something for another. Others you can talk to about your problems and no matter what they say, it seems to make sense and you feel better...thus a smile. Ok, a smile doesn't always come in that case, but people usually smile after that. Anyone can have a blonde moment and make everyone smile because of it. I'm glad I've got friends who can do all of these: have blonde moments, take care of others or have an episode of hyperactivity that you can't he...

Am I Proud to Be an American?

This weekend is the 4th of July, or Independence Day in the United States of America. One of my favorite songs during this time of celebrating the country is "God Bless the USA." The words paint a detailed picture of the beauty of the United States, both in a physical and emotional aspect. Our country is often depicted in a majestic manner such as this, making it seem like the greatest in the world and we often hear those bold words, "I'm proud to be an American."  With all of the issues that have been cropping up over the past couple of years such as impeachment, systemic racism, foreign intervention, and most significantly the COVID-19 pandemic, I have reflected deeply about what we celebrate with the 4th of July. These issues are just a few of the many that have made me wonder about the country we praise so proudly.  Am I really proud to be an American?  Thomas Jefferson wrote the candid words of the Declaration of Independence, which were th...

Book of Mormon Stories

Dear Reader, Today I simply want to share a story that has strengthened my testimony of the Book of Mormon over the years. Professor Felix Mynhardt was fluent in many languages, including English, Afrikaans, Hebrew and Egyptian, as well as many others. He was employed as a language professor when he had been praying that the Lord would give him some divinely important task that would justify his having this gift of language from God. In 1970 he visited with a group of Mormon leaders, who sought to commission him to translate the Book of Mormon from English into Afrikaans. He said that he knew of the Book of Mormon from his religions studies, and his initial reaction was that he did not want to be involved in translating it. However, that evening, as he prayed upon his knees, as was his habit, he said the Spirit of the Lord convinced him. The message was something on the order of, "You asked me for a great, divinely inspired task of translation, I sent it to you in the form o...
