My daughter has seven children. Each year I babysit while she and her husband go on a much needed vacation. I start each babysitting by praying for added strength and endurance. Each year I am amazed at what I’m able to accomplish there. They have two staircases that have 18 stairs each and I am able to carry children up them. I am grateful to be able to call upon angels when needed.

I am wondering if some of these experiences are too sacred to share. Often the results of circulating these accounts so freely is that thousands are asking, "What's wrong with me? Why haven't I had this experience when I needed it so much?" While we can know that our loved ones who are deceased, and angels, are supporting to us, it seems more important to me that we carefully cultivate a relationship with the Holy Ghost and our Savior for reliance and comfort.

My mother wanted to cover a section of her yard with rock. Over 2,600 lbs. of rock were delivered. It was a hot July day when I moved the rock with a wheelbarrow. It me hours to move the rock. Despite the heat and the physical labor that was required to move all of the rock, I did not find the task terribly difficult. About 45 minutes before I finished I felt the strong impression from my father, who had passed away many years earlier, "Ok, I've helped you enough. You can finish the rest of the work on your own". I was so pleased and touched that he was there to help me with the task.
