Dear Willa: Marrying Daddy
Dear Willa, Ill years ago I was listening to the October Conferences as I am today. Howevern I was in the Conference Center with your big brother just 6 rows away from our prophet. I was dating Daddy and he had already told me how much he loved me, but I was still afraid of moving forward towards marriage with anyone. I had been so hurt and was so scared to be hurt again. I was listening in conference particularly for answers from God through his servants as to what I should do. Elder Neil Anderson said 2 things that spoke so plainly to me. First he said, "The gift of faith is priceless." To me that meant you Daddy was priceless as I saw and felt his faith. In me, in God, in himself, and in his answer from God that I was to be his wife. And though I didn't know it then his next phrase would prove so true in our future life together. He said, "No trial is so large we can't overcome it together . " We were married the weekend of the April Conference
