Dear Kevin,
Here I am. Another year has passed. It is crazy how I can feel so many emotions in one day. Mostly I just miss you. I went to the temple today and happened to read this scripture:
Ether 12:4&6
4. "Wherefore, whoso believeth in God might with surety hope for a better world, yea even a place at the right hand of God, which hope cometh of faith, maketh an anchor to the souls of men, which would make them sure and steadfast, always abounding in good works, being led to glorify God.
6. "And now, I, Moroni, would speak somewhat concerning these things; I would show unto the world that faith is things which are hoped for and not seen; wherefore, dispute not because ye see not, for ye receive no witness until after the trial of your faith.
It is hard for me (as you already know) to put my feelings into words. Having faith is something that I am trying hard to work on. Faith that this crazy life will all work out. Faith that I am on the right track, doing the right things. Faith that what has happened was what was supposed to happen. It's funny. I always wonder if what I am doing is what you would approve of. I still worry about what you might think. I am trying my best. Because I know that if I have faith, I am happier. It makes me want to be good. It's true. After this trial of my faith, everything will be okay. I am working hard to be on the right hand of God. Life is hard. But I am doing some really hard things right now. And I will carry on because I know that is what you would want me to do. I will make it. I love you and miss you!
Love,
Me

That's my favorite scripture. I thought about you and Kevin yesterday, amidst all the busyness of our life, and marvelled at how time is passing so quickly. Has it really been 3 years? I wish I had remembered to call you. Still wishing we could see you, too. Love you, Tera.
