Two days ago, May 18, 2010, I listened to a voice mail from my daughter Tyffany. I could tell by her voice that she was struggling with life, and not without reason. Peter (Tyff's husband, my son-in-law) is currently somewhere off the coast of South Korea, on a training cruise for the students at CSU-Maritime Acadamy, and is doing well... Meanwhile, Tyff is managing to hold up under increased pressure in her supervisory position, trying to catch up some work so she can take a two-week Family Medical Leave, as Victor (my soon-to-be grandson) starts living with her tonight, I could understand her troubles.
She asked me to give her a Father's Blessing, something I have done before, but a long time ago. How could I say "No"? This is the first time, in a long while, that she has the faith in my Priesthood Authority to bless her according to the Spirit. It was a truly spiritual evening, I do not remember what I said, exactly, but I know the blessing addressed all of her worries. She's going to be a great Mom. Victor is such a wonderful little boy. I can't wait to have him become a part of our family.
That's it.
