Day 151 - Sunday, November 27, 2016
Happy birthday to our energetic, talented and beautiful oldest child, Staci.  Staci was 3 pounds 7 ounces when she was born.  She spent boundless energy growing when she was young and she continues to be a force for all things great for her family.  This is a picture of Staci one week ago.  She was assisting her sister, Mikale, after she gave birth to baby Lincoln. I wasn't able to be there so Staci left her 4 children in the capable hands of others and drove hours away to be with Mikale during labor and recovery.  Mikale had her big sister by her side as Lincoln entered our family.  Normally that would have been my cherished role.  This is just one example of the ways Staci has supported President Clark and me while we have been away.  Staci made certain all was well with the Williamson family before she made the long trip back to her family in Boise.  Children taking care of their brothers and sisters - there is no better example of the plan of salvation at work, just as Heavenly Father planned it.  Happy Birthday, Sis!

Day 325 - Thursday, May 18, 2017 Today is President Clark's birthday.  It is also the final day of the Mission President Seminar.  This is our final Mission President's Seminar.  It is a day for me to reflect on just how wonderful this man is.  He is my strength, my go-to adviser, my knight in shining armor.  Our adventure in the Philippines has deepened my desire to be with him through the eternities.   A witness and testimony! These are days never to be forgotten!

Day 379 - July 10, 2017                                         At approximately 6:30 a.m. on Monday morning we arrived at our home in Naperville.  Another wash of emotion fell upon us.  We were tired from traveling but rejuvenated with an enthusiasm for next steps.  My good friend, Lisa, welcomed us with balloons and notes all over the front door.  Our home looked so well kept.  Our friends who stayed here while we were gone took tender loving care of it.  It's good to be home!

Day 307 - Saturday, April 29, 2017   Today we drove over to Baler early in the morning.  Monday is a national holiday so we couldn't find a vacant hotel room.  This meant we did all of our work in one day.  We did our interviews with these dedicated Elders then took them to an all-you-can-eat buffet.  It began as a quiet meal but as their stomachs began to fill, there was more conversation.  They are true Elders!  After they finished eating, we went around to each apartment and inspected.  I'm happy to announce that they all had clean apartments.    Elders being taught.
