Temple Day

Today I got the chance to attend the temple with one of my best friends.

Heather was my first roommate at college at USU. She was not a member of my church, and had no interest in being one.

We soon became best friends. And we've stayed that way for the past 9 years.

Last year I was ecstatic when she decided to be baptized. It was a very happy day.

Today I had the privilege of being her escort as she went through the Bountiful Temple for the first time.

I'm so proud of her and the choices she's made.

I know it hasn't been easy for her.

Even though she had no family support, and went through a pretty awful marriage and annulment, she hasn't lost the new faith that she found so recently.

She's a pretty strong woman. And I can tell she's happy.

Even when she's stressed, she's happier than when I first met her.

Congratulations Heather!
