Beautiful Daughters

Is this a lucky man or what?!?





His wife is pretty lucky, too.  

From President Gordon B. Hinckley:

"We read in the book of Genesis and in the book of Moses of that great, singular, and remarkable undertaking [the creation of the world]. The Almighty was the architect of that creation. Under His direction it was executed by His Beloved Son, the Great Jehovah, who was assisted by Michael, the archangel.
There came first the forming of heaven and earth, to be followed by the separation of the light from the darkness. The waters were removed from the land. Then came vegetation, followed by the animals. There followed the crowning creation of man. Genesis records that “God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good” (Gen. 1:31).
But the process was not complete.
“For Adam there was not found an help meet for him.
“And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;
“And the rib, which the Lord God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.
“And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman” (Gen. 2:20–23).
And so Eve became God’s final creation, the grand 
summation of all of the marvelous work that had 
gone before."
Having been blessed with three daughters, I often think on that final statement and can attest to its truth.  We are so grateful for our beautiful daughters!
