This is not a movie review. The title describes my current state. For the third time, the third year in a row now, I find myself home alone. After a long day of driving and taking the kids to Las Vegas so they can fly to Alaska I came home to an empty house. I was immediately missing the kids.
We had a busy morning packing and getting a few things from the store. Before we left the house I gave each of them a priesthood blessing. I cried in each one of them. I love those kiddos. I am grateful for the Priesthood and for the opportunity to lay my hands on my children's heads and give them a father's blessing. In doing so we were strengthened and uplifted. I was given peace and comfort knowing that Heavenly Father knows each of us, that he is aware of our needs and that Natty, Jack and Andy will be protected while we are apart. It was quite comforting to me.
I did stop at the Saint George Temple and do some initiatory work. Saw pops working and that was fantastic. He gets a lot of joy out of serving in the temple as does mom. I am happy for them.
