Have you ever had one of those days? Even one of those weeks? Better yet one of those years? I can honestly say that lately those days are more often than I would like, but through it all the Lord is constantly blessing me with so many little tender mercies and helping me through. Yesterday just happened to be one one of those days, aaron was due home at 3:00 but by the time he was home I was already in tears, just feeling overwhelmed and to be honest not like I am doing a good enough job and well, you know the rest. So my sweetheart showed up with a boquet of daisies(my favorite) and a great big hug and I just knew everything would be ok. Then we sat down to go through the mail, and I had a letter with no return address and the following little note in it:
I am trying to be better always. I don't try to do things wrong. Tommorow is another day and hopefull I will be and do better.
Oh well, the sun was shining today and it might snow. That makes me happy, and better yet I have the most amazing husband, the 5 cutest kids ever and the gospel.
Life is good
K-mart was having a huge clearance sale on all their winter items. Since our children grow rather quickly (surprising right????) we needed some more winter things. This time though we got some really fun winter things. The kids all had so much fun trying things on.
Palmer wanted to wear the "dinosaur" hat first. So since we have a dinosaur hat on then naturally we must act like a dinosaur. He is by far the cutest dinosaur I have ever seen!
I am trying to be better always. I don't try to do things wrong. Tommorow is another day and hopefull I will be and do better.
This year for the December dance recital it was an informal dance performance. We had it at the dance studio and there was only about 30 people in the audience. Libby was so funny. She was still so nervous, but did a great job! She has come such a long way with dance. We are so very proud of our little girl! Libby is the best!
She is very good at doing what she is supposed to do. She practices very hard all the time. In fact she doesn't walk she usually skips or practices her leaps as she goes anywhere!

MOM
This past week has been a whirlwind of events. Mom went from having pneumonia to have cancer. Can I just say that the past 5 days have been an incredible spiritual and faith building experience. My mother is an incredible lady and I want to be the kind of person she is to others. She is kind, thoughtful, sincere, loving, service oriented....Absolutley amazing. I have had my testimony strengthened 10 fold about the power of faith and the priesthood. Another miracle has occured and I am honored to have been able to witness it. I know the next few months are going to be harder than anything, but I do know that the Lord is mindful of all of us. Family is amaizng!
