Well, summer has officially begun, and I decided to spend it in the bay area. It was a quick decision to move home for a couple months but I was sure this was what I was supposed to do, and where the Spirit was leading. I was released from any committments I had, including job and classes, and even the most significant LDS relationship in UT (my friend Julianne). She was moving to Indiana.

So right after my final I hopped on a plane to be with my family for a while. I did not know what to expect other than being with them during such a crisis, and I am so thankful that I have this opportunity and can be here.

The reason which brought me home is my niece Tessa, who was born in January. She has been in the ICU ever since, and we have seen many ups and downs with her. Twice the doctors have prepared us for her not to make it. But the Lord has heard our prayers and had mercy on us and sustained her life. His power is being made known through her.

As for me, my every day consists of watching Audrey, and during the nights visiting Tessa or hanging out with Rachelle and Ian. Coming in July will be two of my best friends' weddings, which I am a part of, so I will be busy with that.

My plan is to head back to Utah the last weekend in July, as my roommates and I will be moving into a new place beginning of August. So...this is just a little update in my life.
