My Little Demons, I mean Demonstrators!









This picture was taken last Monday night outside of Rob's building. We gathered with alot of others from the stake, and had lots of positive response! We were only given the bird a couple of times. The kids had a great time and it was a great learning experience for them. I love that we have been able to talk about the propositions, the importance of our Heavenly Fathers plan, and marriage! They are all so young, but have such a great understanding. Jordan was even able to go out with his seminary class on two mornings and hold signs. I am so proud of him and his choice to talk freely with his peers about his beliefs. He was in the minority but that did not intimidate him at all. I feel so blessed to have been able to fight for this important principle! In the days since the election, I have pondered much on how the pioneers must have felt as they were driven out of their towns because of the persecution. What strong souls they must have been! I feel that I have had a glimpse of their pain as I watch on as our temples and churches are attacked because we have spoken up for ourselves and our beliefs! It is so sad to see, especially since the LDS population was only 2 percent of the Yes vote. It does make me happy to know that their are other faiths, and just righteous people out there who believe as I do. We are not alone in this, although sometimes we may feel as though we are. Sorry for the rambling! YEAH YES ON PROP 8!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
