There is a reason for everything

Mackenzie has been a little on the cranky side recently and we have been blaming it on the fact that she is two. Well we forgot how much it hurts when you have new teeth and sure enough that is what Mackenzie has. She is getting her last set of teeth in and it is a tad uncomfortable.

To make matters worse she is being weaned off the pacifier (Hallelujah). We got her down to just at night then we lied to her this weekend when we went up to Duval and told her we forgot it. She whines at first when we put her down but she is sleeping fine.

Now onto this weekend. We went up to Duval because a nephew on Kelly's side was getting baptized. It was a great baptism. Very spiritual and to top it off there was a complete stranger that came. One of the family members flew in from Salt Lake and on the flight sat next to a large Native American man. They had a good discussion and the man was so impressed he gave Lisa (Dale's wife; Dale is the one that died a couple Christmases ago) his phone number. Well she called him and invited him to the baptism and he came and after had a long good discussion about what we believe. This goes to show that there is a reason for everything.

Hopefully this man will take the discussions soon, he showed interest in the discussions and Kelly and I said we would go with him to the first couple (He lives in Tacoma by Union Station).

Anyway it's not that often that I am part of missionary moments, but it is a great experience to be a part of one. Remember to always look for those moments.
