MARCH HIGHLIGHTS

Some things that happened in March that are in no particular order. We are still participating in Dance, Guitar lessons, church activities, and preparing for more upcoming birthdays.

I just love them to pieces. This is just to document them for Spring 2011. J. is now taller than me.

M. is taller than me as well.

He is all boy and keeping me busy with the mud and dirt and his imagination now that the weather has turned nice out.

MY SPRING BABY

We are so glad you graced us with your sweet loving spirit nine years ago. Your daddy and I have not been the same since. I love your free love you give randomly and unsolicited. I love your tender little heart. You are so beautiful, and I see SO MUCH potential in you. It has been a great privilege and honor to be your mommy and watch you blossom into who you are at this very moment.

Happy Birthday Sweetheart!

A lazy Sunday afternoon

Watching Monk, texting, scratching backs, and just chatting with each other. I wouldn't trade it for the world.

JANUARY IN A NUTSHELL

This year is already off to a great start. Here are just some highlights.

1. I lost 10 pounds.

2. C started taking dance, which she gets to do for free because I volunteered as the helper.

3. J started taking guitar lessons, which her teacher says she was born to play.

4. K is spelling more and more.

5. Relisted our house on the market...(expecting a great miracle to have it sold this year).

6. We had a snow day, which I enjoy hanging out with the kids and taking it easy.

7. Had New Beginnings with M and J. I was so proud to watch M fulfill her duties in young women's (she led the music, made the decorations, and made the cake for dessert) and I was able to help welcome and introduce J because she will be going in this year. I am so blessed to be their mom.

8. M and I gave a talk in sacrament meeting together. So glad I was able to research the topic I did.

9. Hunted with T to try one last time to get me a doe.

10. J and C had some friends sleepover that is always fun for them.

IT IS TRUE

T and I have been making some pretty big decisions over the last couple of months. I have been wrestling with some trivial concerns about them, but in reading my scriptures I came across this.

"Lift up your hearts and be glad, for I am in your midst, and am your advocate with the Father; and it is his good will to give you the kingdom. And, as it is written--Whatsoever ye shall ask in faith, being united in prayer according to my command, ye shall receive. " D&C 29:5-6

What a great comfort it is to have these words written to know that it is going to be okay. My Father in Heaven is with me, and if I have faith and ask him in prayer, I will receive that which I need. Our family has had some miraculous things happen to us this month, and we KNOW that it is the hand of our Father in Heaven answering our prayers.

Awesome.

Friendship

K and Riley are the best of friends. K goes into the mud room where we let Riley stay when it is really cold outside. Okay, even when it is not so cold sometimes. K lays down by her and she puts her leg over him. They love each other.
