Have you ever gone to your favorite restaurant and made your order from a secret menu, one that is not published or advertised, but that will be honored upon request?
Here’s the situation: I'm in my kitchen wearing a flowery apron that once belonged to my grandmother, chopping up cooked chicken to put in this mix I was making for the recipe: Baked Creamy Chicken Taquitos. (That's right: baked, not fried.)
There was nothing leading up to Mother’s Day 2006 that indicated impending doom. There was no foreboding music playing ominously; no dark clouds. In fact, that morning there were birds chirping and the light of warm, yellow sun spilling through my bedroom windows. Had the beautiful conditions of the day been any indicator, the day I’m about to describe would not exist in our family’s folklore. But alas, Mother’s Day 11 years ago will forever be known as the day I landed face down on the floor of the chapel, on top of my 3-year-old, in the middle of sacrament meeting, with my skirt flung over my head.
As the Beauty and the Beast countdowns begin (or have been going for some time) and you didn't think you could be any more excited for the film, there's something just as magical happening. Lexi Walker and BYU Vocal Point are teaming up for a Beauty and the Beast medley.

There won’t be an inspiring take-home handout to keep on my mirror and remind me of a wonderful night shared with my sisters.

I need to lament. When atrocities like what happened yesterday at Sandy Hook Elementary take place, I begin to wonder why God didn’t protect those little ones, why He doesn’t protect all of the little ones. I know that He can’t show Himself and risk destroying our need for faith and free agency, but couldn’t He have, just this once, broken His non-interventionist rule and done something small like busted the taillight on the kid’s car, making him get pulled over by the police on the way to the school? Something small that wouldn’t have aroused any suspicion of divine intervention? He created the universe and everything in it, certainly he could have taken out a taillight or flattened a tire.
