Every year I look forward to the Primary Program in church when the children take over Sacrament meeting with their sweet, comical spirits. The last 2 years I was privileged enough to be on the stage with all of them and see their practice turn into a show stopping hour but this year I was in the audience. It was a bit strange not being up on the stage but I was excited to experience it straight on. As the children were getting settled on the stand I turned to Jordan and said, "Maddie would have been up there" and unexpectedly the water works began. I knew I was in trouble when I was already tearing up when the program hadn't even started yet! Gosh those kind of realities hit all the time. Primary will always have a special place in my heart and I could feel the spirit so strong especially during the closing song "I know that my Savior loves me." It was such a great program and can't wait until we get to watch Drake up there!

Wow! You had me crying! I am so glad that you got to be there! I missed our ward's cause we had to be out of town!
I am tearing up right now. Marlo you are amazing. It takes a special person to go through what you guys have. Maddie would have been the star of the show with her sparkling personality. I keep trying to talk Paul into coming down for a little vacation. We miss you guys!!
Marlo, we missed you up there. I'm so grateful for all you've done to "pave the way" for the Stony Point primary. You've taught the kids so much and your influence will be felt in their lives for years to come.
