The Women's Broadcasts are always great - I can hardly remember not having them - so glad we do have them. I especially love how the women in our family feel so connected by them. We discuss them often - text threads, email threads, photo-sharing - sometimes we are lucky enough to enjoy them together!! Like I did last night with Dawn and Eve. And then Dad came down from the stand and joined us - a veritable treat!!
Phoebe shared the fun of sharing the broadcast with Agnes for the first time. Oh the joy of a daughter!
And Ara was able to go to the Conference Center - with some good friends and some pretty good seats!! I recall going to General Conference for the first time when I was a freshman at BYU. I didn't realize or appreciate it at the time, but at the session that I attended, Thomas S. Monson was sustained as the newest apostle!
We loved hearing from Linda Reeves - beloved former member of Arcadia Stake. Mormons are so good at connections, aren't they??
I loved the closing choir number. The worldwide audience sang along while the choir sang an accompaniment - I felt like I was singing with the choir. For a non-singer like myself - who loves to sing anyway - it was a real treat.
Let's hear it for the general auxiliary presidencies who put it all together!!
(And on a male note, I always love President Uchtdorf - who did not disappoint!)
