This all happened on a Tuesday night and it was a sleepless night that night.
Why sleepless?
It is a lot of responsibility for Marc.
It is a lot of sacrifice for me and for him, and our children.
Why are we willing to do this?
Because we are willing to do the work of the Lord.
It was a sweet welcome on the day after Marc was sustained into our Ward Bishopric when we came home to hearts plastered all over our front door. A Heart Attack! It was so wonderful for Marc and it really made him feel like they had welcomed him with open arms. It was our sweet little Achievement Day girls, I think, the 10-year-olds?? Not sure, but, it was so cute!
Here is Marc with his hearts!

| Ya, check out the cowboy behind him, and the turkey to the left... love my mom's crafts! |
Is that possible?
Stronger.
I know it is because Heavenly Father is carrying me and he will continue to if I allow him into my life. Our stake leader asked me to be more diligent in reading my scriptures and advised us to stay on track with Family Home Evening. I am taking that advice to heart and I am trying. I know it has only been one week of this, but, I will have faith that I, and Marc, can do this.
Pray for him.
Pray for us.
We are going to need all the help we can get.
But, we are very excited!

Congratulations Marc, they've picked a good person, Rachel, the Lord will open new paths of support for you. What an opportunity for growth.
Good luck! You guys can do it!
That's so awesome.. You guys are awesome!!
I love the heart attack.....that was sweet of them!
That is AWESOME!! Congrats! and good luck, I know you will have the help of the Lord in your life and hopefully the help of someone with your kids in Sacrament meeting!! He'll be great and so will you:)
I hate to say "I told you so"... well, maybe I don't! But truly, I did have a feeling (it could have been indigestion). I loved Mark's words on Sunday [humility rocks]. Yes, we will pray for you too!
Everyone in the whole ward (and beyond) are so excited about the new bishopric! And the Lord will bless you as you support Marc! You are both such examples!
