Jidla family

Jidla and Nisha invited us to their home for dinner. We've known this family since we first came and they are one of our many favorites. Baby Genesis is about the same age as our new granddaughter Kayla. We have watched her grow and imagine how big Kayla is getting. This little girl really loves her father.

Nisha is a beautiful young mother who is a good member of the church and always looks beautiful. The women here radiate virtue and lovely in everything they do.
Jidla and Nisha are hoping to go to the temple in November. We have been teaching them temple preperation class.

Cooking in India is much harder work and takes more time for preperation than in the USA. If you are served 3 or 4 dishes you know there has been a lot of work and time involved in the cooking. It makes me appreciate all the little conveniences I have at home, but it also makes me appreciate the dedication and service these sisters give to taking care of their families.

Isn't Genesis just the sweetest thing you've ever seen? This photo makes me want to sing that primary song, "We are a Happy Family." This should be everyones motto and goal. Jidla is going to school 8 hours a day and working about 12....He's young...and can handle it....but it is a rough schedule. Nisha was working but it was so hard on their family life that they made the decision that they couldn't both work and they've found peace in that decision.
