Is this the temple ya'll were sealed in? I heard a great story on Sunday, it nearly made me cry....

Our teacher is a convert, and her children are not members, and granddaughter saw the picture on the wall that was given to them of the temple. It was from when they went through the temple and were sealed. The little girl asked her grandma why she had a castle on her wall. Her grandma told her that is where they were sealed to be together forever, and the little girl asked if they were kings and queens too, to live happily ever after....When Sharon (our teacher) was telling this story she paused and had to wipe her tears away, she told her grand daughter that's exactly what they were going to be. She told her that it was the temple.

To hear her tell the story gave me chills. I don't have a doubt that, that moment was a missionary moment. This child is going to grow up and want to be a Queen, and want to do whatever it takes to get there. She has a great example. Very neat. Thank you for sharing your GRATITUDE!! :)

Yep this is where we were sealed, except there was fresh snow all over the ground 11 years ago when we were there. Thanks for sharing that story-she definitely planted some seeds there!
