Did you know?

Did you know?  A handcart pioneer tribute 

Did you know
As you looked down at the blisters on your hand
There would be temples accross this land
Did you know
As you buried your sweet baby in the ground
In the temple you would someday be bound
Did you know
As the tears fell down your cheeks like rain
You would someday be free from the pain
Did you know
As you pulled the cart along
Others would someday sing your song
Did you know
As you trudged up each hill
Many would be inspired by your strong will
Did you know
As you carried the gospel in your heart
What an amazing work you would be a part.

Baby Sam

You started out with cute dark hair
Tiny fingers and toes
And so unaware
You've grown taller and stronger
And you are such a delight
I want to hold you a little longer
When I rock you to sleep at night
Your hair has gotten blonder
You are growing up so fast
One year of babyhood has passed.

Now you are walking
And doing a little talking
Throwing things on the floor
Then going back for more

You will always be my baby boy
You have brought us so much joy.
