Welcome Home

Our Beloved Prophet Gordon B. Hinckley Died tonight. He was able to return to our loving Father in Heaven, and oh what peace he feels now. I am sure the angels in Heaven are bowing down to him, and his most gracious wife is so delighted to see him, and how delighted he is to see his wife. What joy their must be in heaven right now. What a legacy he has left here for all of us to have. One of those blessings he has left for us that has stuck out in my mind i the amount of Temples he was apart of bringing here upon this earth.
As I sat down and had prayers with Callie tonight, I thought that afterwords I would explain to her about the prophet. We have talked to her a little bit about him before, and in fact tonight her Papa Joe was showing her a picture of the prophet. So I asked her if she remembered who the prophet was and if she remember seeing his picture tonight, and I could tell that she was remembering a little bit about who he was. I then proceeded to explain to her that he had returned to his Father in Heaven, and I asked her if she was happy that he was there now and she got all excited and said YEA!! You know I thought about that after, and it is true, we should be so excited that he has gone to be with his beautiful wife and our Father in Heaven. He surely will be missed, but will never be forgotten.
