Vision: Ear Piercings

Ear Piercings

This is what you do when your husband isn't here to say no. I got all 3 girls ears pierced. I was only planning on doing Eve because she really wanted it but when we got there Esther was asking as well. I was shocked with Eve's response. I thought for sure she would freak out all she said was "ow" and then she let us do the other ear with out any hesitation. Esther on the other hand after getting poked on one ear refused to let us poke her other ear. So I had to be firm with her because I wasn't about to let her only have one piercing that would look ridiculous. Asenath on the other hand screamed the loudest. It hurt me more then it hurt them, I think. Oh well they look pretty and I love it. They love it to. They can't stop talking about their earrings.
When Nancy and I were young and we got our ears pierced we ran out of the mall and cried like little sissies not these girls.

Juanita's Conversion Story

I feel that Heavenly Father has blessed me with the desire to play softball. The fact that the Lord was guiding me to play softball became more evident to me when I was offered a scholarship to play ball at BYU-Hawaii. The thought of attending BYU-Hawaii just seemed right and good at the time so I attended college there. My first year in college I was so excited to learn, play, and party. I discovered real soon that the students who attended the university had fun without drinking. I also discovered that the people were faithful and they had a strong sense of purpose and Identity. This compelled me to go on a spiritual search. I decided to take the lessons from the missionaries from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. As I took the lessons I was taught things that I heard before and things that were new to me. Such as the Book of Mormon and the prophet Joseph Smith. These were things that were a challenge for me to believe. So I took these challenges up to the Lord and I asked him if the Book of Mormon is the word of God and if Joseph Smith was a true prophet of God. I'm so delighted to share with you that I do know that the Book of Mormon is true and that the Prophet Joseph Smith was a true prophet of God. I know that it's true because of the power of the Holy Spirit, because of these truths and much more I decided to be baptized and serve the Lord. Getting baptized was the best decision I ever made. It's because of this choice that I enjoy the blessing of life today. The church is true and I find myself indebt to the Lord forever.
