Today at church we had a lesson from the Stake Presidency on Family Search and our ancestors. We were asked to go online and see what Family Search.org is all about. I have been on before, but not for a long while. I was online just looking at pictures, and my kids gathered around the computer to see what I was looking at. One of the first people pictured in my photos was my grandfather, Ardon Baird Evans. He was a great story teller. I loved listening to his stories, and he was a little mischievous as a child so there are a lot of them. There was also a life history online and so I scrolled down about a page and told my girls one of the stories that he had shared with me when I was about their ages. As I was reading I could almost hear his voice and remembered his big smile as he told me the stories of his youth. I have missed that man! It was wonderful to stop and think about him even if it was only a minute or two, and to share a story about him with my kids. I am so grateful for forever families.
