It’s sooo hot today! Let me walk in your shadow for a minute.

OK. Then we’ll trade.

And Mandy thinks I do weird stuff!

Ahh! Real shade at last. This is my favorite tree. I call it my remembering tree.

Why is that?

Last summer I was under this tree reading the Book of Mormon and praying about it. And I got this peaceful feeling. I really felt it was true.

I still read and pray. And when I remember what the Holy Ghost has already taught me, my faith gets stronger.
