Today I witnessed answers to many of my prayers to Father in Heaven, as I watched my daughter, Jodie, Wearing her Temple clothing, kneel at the alter in the Salt Lake Temple, holding hands with the one she loved, being sealed for this time, and all eternity, by the power of the Holy Priesthood. One of the greatest joys, a Mother can have, is to be in the Temple with her children.
Both Lynn and Will's father were asked to be the witnesses. That left a empty chair beside me. I saw Danny, Will's Aunt, and motioned for her to come and sit by me. Danny is very friendly, has never been married, and does not have any children of her own. She expressed appreciation of being able to experience this part of a sealing from a family side. After the Marriage, Danny helped me dress, and lace Jodie's wedding dress in back, for her pictures on the Temple grounds.
Of those in attendance that I knew, were Cory and Marilyn Grua, (Our former Bishop), Paulette and James Inman, Breanne Jensen Ballard.
Most all the chairs on the right side of the room were filled with the Jolley,s family. The other side of the room was mostly filled by friends and Jodie's family.
Launie and Amber, Ivie waited outside to greet Jodie and Will....
