Here's some the pictures I've taken. That pine cone was in Idylwild! They were all super big there!
Not much else happened differently. I'm doing a lot of praying and reading. The kids are starting school here now. It feels weird, summer really went by quickly.
I've been writing poems, or trying to, when I have time. Here's what I've got so far on my monthly poem (one stanza a month):
"Hurrah for Israel! My work has begun!
I'm ready for trials, bring on the fun!
I give these next two years top my Lord!
I wield the Holy Armour, shield, and sword!
Hurrah for Israel! What more can I say?
May the Refiner's light my way!
Awake my soul! Rejoice my heart!
My Lord, please make me as thou art!
Hurrah for Israel! The field is white!
The world is dark, but our light is bright!
Temptations run rampant, the natural man is strong.
But my God is with me, Her leads me along!"
And I've written a verse for "O My Father":
"O My mother, thou that lovest
Me when I, need out the most.
With thy teaching and example
I have every cause to boast.
In our humble, loving family
Thou hast shown me grace and truth.
Though We've suffered much afflictions
I'm so thankful for my youth."
I'm working on three other verses right now, but that's what I have finished so far.
