TODAY IS THE

day and I am so thankful that Heavenly Father is allowing me the privilege to be a part of this modern day miracle for Dennis. I am so excited for his new lease on life and I am absolutely giddy!

I am thankful that we are a close extended family that loves each other. We haven't always been this close and I'm thankful for every family member that has made the choice to try harder, forgive past and present choices made and to move on. I'm very proud of our family. On our great days, and not so great days, you all are still awesome and I love you very much.

I love you so much Larry. Thank you for loving me, respecting me and thank you very much for standing by me. You are the best husband and father and I love how every day you show us how much you love our little family.

Larry J, Laird, Landon and Lach - I love you more than you could ever imagine and I am so proud of you and the young men you are becoming. You bring me absolute joy and I love being your mother.

I am so thankful to be a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints. I bear my testimony that I know the church is true and I am thankful that we have the guidance of our prophet Thomas S. Monson. I am thankful for the atonement of Jesus Christ. I am thankful for the priesthood. And, I am so thankful that we are families forever.

I am thankful for my friendships and I am thankful for all the love, fasting and prayers given on behalf of Dennis and I. It means so much.

Love your guts! ~Laura
