January 28th

What a crazy day this has been. We got up to go to the temple this morning, we got all ready and suddenly the phone rang. It was Kimberly and she was in tears again. She studied hard for her Math test and then was told she no longer could take the test to be in Math 1050 and she was out of the class. So we headed to the High School to find out what was going on. After hours of talking on the phone to several different people we were finally given permission for her to take the test one last time. Then if she took the acuplacer test at UVU and passed it then she would be allowed in the classroom at UVU to take the test. Her teacher would let her take the test even if the test only had a couple of minutes left. She would give her the full time to take it. So we ran to the High School to get Kimberly's notes for the test, while she was taking the acuplacer test. We left her at UVU to take the test and ran. When we returned there was Kimberly. She had taken the test and failed it miserably. She had to get a 50 on it. The first time she took it she got a 37, the second time she took it she got a 45. This time when she took it she got a 28. My husband and I were in shock. She knew she had passed it, she said it was much easier than she remembered, but that isn't what happened she got a 28. I knew she had had a frustrating day but I didn't think it could be this bad. Apparently as she studied for the test last night she prayed hard. She told Heavenly Father if he didn't want her in the class to help her get below a 30 because she didn't want to get a 49 and be disappointed. Well her pray was answered and she was happy. The miracle of the day was that she really wanted her twin to take the test for her because she doesn't test well. But she knew that she would be blessed if she did it herself. She would be one of integrity. I am so proud of her because of her happiness inspite of things not working out for her to stay in that class. But most of all I am grateful that I have children with integrity. A daughter that would sooner be on the Lords side than that of the worlds. That is my miracle for this day. Sometimes things don't happen they way we want them to. But it takes one of great courage to be a daughter of the Lord.
