For Time and All Eternity

I am so proud of this cute little family. This is my nephew, Travis and his wife and daughters. They have been down a very long and rough road in life. There have been many prayers offered on their behalf and many tears shed. When they both realized that they were in the fast lane to nowhere - they made some drastic changes. I know the road back has been difficult- but they have been strong. They have been an inspiration to me that it's never too late to become who the Lord intends for us to be. And that we are never "lost" in the eyes of our Savior. And that prayers are always answered - even if sometimes it's years later.

I have to add this one more comment. I remember when Trav was a little boy, and he had such life and a sparkle in his eyes. That life and sparkle has been gone for a long time. But when I walked into the temple, and saw him sitting there, he looked like that little boy I used to know. He was so full of life with a sparkle that didn't just twinkle in his eyes - but radiated throughout his whole soul.
