We are members of The Church of Jesus Christ </div>

When a child turns 8 in our church,</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
they have the opportunity to follow Jesus' example and be baptized.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I'm so grateful for the choice I made at the age of 8 to be baptized.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">

<div style="text-align: right;">
Baptism is a sacred ordinance.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
It's an occasion that children look foward to,</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
parents, also. </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Being cleansed from sin and then receiving the Gift of the Holy Ghost.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
And then after the baptism,</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
there's usually a big hoopla to celebrate. </div>

<div style="text-align: right;">
This has been a tender subject for me</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
as Wyatt approached his 8th birthday.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
You see, humbly speaking,</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Wyatt is pretty much perfect.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
He cannot make a mistake, ever.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
He is not capable of sinning.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
He'll be like a child for his whole life long.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
The scripture says that Jesus</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
"<i>came into the world not to call the righteous but sinners to repentance; </i></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<i>the whole need no physician, but they that are sick;</i></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<i> wherefore, little children are whole, </i></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<i>for they are not capable of committing sin...</i></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<i><span class="verse"> </span>Behold I say unto you that this thing shall ye teach—</i></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<i>repentance and baptism unto those who are </i></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<i>accountable and capable of committing sin."</i></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">{Moroni 8:8,10}</span> </div>

<div style="text-align: right;">
So having a child that gets a free ticket to heaven</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
is truly a blessing</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
but there was this part of my heart that was sad about </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
not having that special celebration for our boy.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Or was there....?</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Once I stopped pouting and realized that, wait,</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
we can still rock this 8 year old thing with some pizazz!</div>

to Grandpa & Grandma's backyard</div>

for a fireside program and ice cream sundaes.</div>

There are certain moments in life</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
that are just so special,</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
it's like heaven & earth join up</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
and you feel a true fullness of joy.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
They're the moments that remind me that pushing through</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
hard knocks are totally worth it.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Because this life is but a speck of our grand adventure.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
That backyard was so full of love!</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
God's spirit enveloped us all.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I was so reminded that His love is so motivating, healing,</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
joyful!</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
And that we can keep going because of it. </div>

I float my cake on water.....</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<i>what in the</i>?!! </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
We've done the pond, the stream, even the tub.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Just depends on the year.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
It is crazy!</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Some years are easier than others,</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
like this night was so windy, the candles wouldn't even light.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
There were so many waves!</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Plus, I forgot the floater thing so the ice chest made do</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
but was so wobbly. </div>

This 3 year old tells us she's going to be in </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
"1st-garden" for school.<br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;">(She's not. She'll be staying home with mom.) </span></div>

<div style="text-align: right;">
And if we can't find her blankie,</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
everyone takes cover.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
She loves giving "tisses." (kiss)</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
She wears her swim suit</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
or a frilly dress or a costume every day.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
There's really only those 3 options</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
as far as she's concerned.</div>

She is so funny!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
She calls potato bugs "holy polies."</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
She says things like "What the freakin' heck?" and "Holy crap."</div>

I worry probably too much about</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
how much attention my kids get or don't get.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I don't want the girls to resent their unique childhood</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
having a brother with special needs.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I am crossing my fingers and toes that it actually helps</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
shape their character into way awesome people.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Honestly, Bugg is so patient and chill</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
that it's often he who has to wait his turn while we deal</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
with Mia's drama, Ella's tantrum, or Addie's potty mishap.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
The endless to-do's of life,</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
the constant "nurturing" of children (nagging, whatever),</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
keeping up with schedules, </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
maintaining marriage & family relationships,</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
for pete's sake! It can be frazzling!</div>

My dear friend, Tami, often asks me,</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
"Bree, what are you fighting for?"</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
She is so great to keep me on track.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
"My family!" I answer.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I'm fighting to keep us safe, healthy, happy, together.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
It's worth it. </div>

<div style="text-align: right;">
Summer was always my favorite season as a kid.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
We were big time water lovers,</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
going waterskiing at the lake weekly,</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
swimming and bbq's at the pool, Water World adventures.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Plus, I have a July birthday so<i> bonus</i>!</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
And my girls just loooove the water, too.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I remember going to the big water park a few years ago.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I had only 3 kids, I got this, right?</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Well, Wyatt needs all my arms in the water</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
so quickly I saw that it wasn't going to work.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
But I bend into ridiculous pretzel shapes to make summer fun & "normal" for the girls</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
so dang it, we're doing this! </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
With a 5 year old and a toddler to look after and follow, no, no, this was</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
definitely not going to work.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
So what happened? </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I sat down and bawled my eyes out.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Sobbed. Felt sorry for myself and my kids.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
But I learned a lot that day.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
There's limits to what I can do<b><i> and it's okay</i></b>.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
So now I get a sitter or wait til the Hunk can come along.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Bugg gets to go to summer school for a few days a week.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
We take advantage of that time to boot.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Or we find other things we can do together</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
like these blessed trampoline parks that are popping up all over.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Genius. <span style="font-size: xx-small;"> (In fact, where were those when I was young? 'Cause now this white girl can't jump.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-size: xx-small;">Holla, all you mama's out there.)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Indoors safe from heat, contained area so I can eyeball all the girls, A/C, crazy fun for all, </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
including Bugg.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
He loves to jump, supported of course.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Or lay down and we gently bounce him.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
He gets hysterical! It's so awesome.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">

<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-size: xx-small;">Fall 2013 ~ Battle Creek Falls hike</span> </div>
Right now, I'm......<br />
<br />
~ craving some chocolate, wishing there was a baked goodie somewhere. But alas, I ate the 5 hidden cookies yesterday.<br />
~ tired from another pitiful night's sleep. Mia is sick and has a horribly itchy rash.<br />
~ loving my new bright blonde hair. The Hunk reminded me recently that I was blonde when we met and that he really liked it. So I obliged. <br />
~ hearing an almost 2 year old Adeline NOT taking her nap. Please don't outgrow those naps yet! But Mia & Ella were 2 1/2 when they were done.<br />
~ wondering what's for dinner tonight? Or even if it's important. Cereal? Yay!<br />
~ thankful for my husband's new-ish job that he is enjoying. After a bout of unemployment, it's more like <i>amazingly grateful</i>!!!<br />
~ ridiculously giddy that Season 3 of "Call the Midwife" starts soon. I've spent absurd amounts of time watching it on my laptop in bed at insane hours. It's THAT good!<br />
~ mad that this laptop is missing 13 keys ripped off by curious little hands. This is taking forever to type!!<br />
~ missing my California old school friends and their laughs. Reunion in our future, girls?<br />
~ thinking that if Spring keeps playing PeekABoo, then I'm going to paint a sun on my ceiling. I'm ready for adventures on some hikes with the girls.<br />
~ wishing for more time to read. I couldn't get into <u>The Happiness Project</u> by Gretchen Rubin so I dropped it. I'm on<u> The Women in Lincoln's Life</u> by H. Donald Winkler. So interesting! And I just finished <u>Visions of Glory</u> by John Pontius and Jane Goodall's autobiography <u>Reason for Hope</u>. The latter being truly inspirational, the former being life-changing! <br />
~ proclaiming myself a Bird Nerd. I have oodles of pictures of different birds on my camera and have loved thumbing through the new field guide to match their identities. Followed a flying egret trying to get closer pics yesterday. So beautiful & fun!<br />
~ hearing peace from Adeline's room - YES!<br />
~ looking forward to the weekend. Bugg has a professional photo shoot for a special needs project, hooking up with my BFF, and of course, the <a href="https://www.lds.org/church/events/general-womens-meeting-a-gathering-of-worldwide-sisterhood?cid=HPWE031914600&im=true&lang=eng">LDS Women's Broadcast</a> which Mia is able to attend now.<br />
<br />
~~Cheers!!!~~ <br />

Gosh, look at the cobwebs in this place!!</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
So sorry for skipping out......yet again.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
But I was in the middle of a nightmare.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
It's called Twenty-Thirteen.......dun, dun, DUUUUUUUNNNN.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
So so many hard things happened to us.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I won't explain.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Except to say that one of the worst things I've ever done was to vacate my precious space on the web.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I love this blog! </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Documenting my blessings and sharing them is ooey gooey goodness for my soul,</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
not to mention it's family history.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Life is still rocky but we're holding on and I'm determined to dwell here more often.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
{{clinking glasses}}</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
And I know you've missed the Bugg like mad.</div>

I love this. </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Except that my Hunk is missing.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
He took this awesome picture. </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Okay, so are you still here, friends?</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
it was <b><i>some winter</i></b>. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
Longest winter ever to date.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
The snow & cold were neverending.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
It was only made more dreary because</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
life has just been plum HARD for our family </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
these past handful of months.</div>

<span style="font-size: x-small;">Mia with her upchuck bowl </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">at Grandma's house. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Plus, we had a boatload of sicknesses run</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
through the household. </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Oh, me, oh, my! Dreadful.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
And it seemed like trial after trial kept coming our way.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
The kind where I throw my hands heaven-ward and say,</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
"Really?!!!"</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I kept trying to push through with my fountain of optimism</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
but guess what?</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
It went & dried up.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Admittedly, the celebration in me completely shut down.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I just couldn't blog.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
What was I to share anyway?</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
This is my happy space. My gratitude journal.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
A sacred home to my precious, joyful memories.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
No clutter here, please.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I save that for my journal.</div>

<div style="text-align: right;">
Wintertime really was dark & long</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
but exponentially so because of how I handled life.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
And it wasn't handled gracefully.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Raw truth.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLXvrVPbWN7A3pvsEPKUAOKjuiTiyW_hMN27mR1PA2yJKb-aQMVLKtraS-4bp57P1ecsHxgIvj7IydQgVQsPySFgwBpX2SZePK8IycagogUNRyZrwc_bbeU-T8Rs8P1UpVMa7OEpxo6klx/s1600/DSC_3743.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="422" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLXvrVPbWN7A3pvsEPKUAOKjuiTiyW_hMN27mR1PA2yJKb-aQMVLKtraS-4bp57P1ecsHxgIvj7IydQgVQsPySFgwBpX2SZePK8IycagogUNRyZrwc_bbeU-T8Rs8P1UpVMa7OEpxo6klx/s640/DSC_3743.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
My life's motto is to <i>Celebrate</i>.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
All things in any situation.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Find a way to have gratitude.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
My favorite scripture is to <a href="http://www.lds.org/scriptures/dc-testament/dc/123?lang=eng">cheerfully do all things</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: right;">
And wouldn't you know it.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
This scripture:</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<a href="http://www.lds.org/scriptures/nt/philip/4?lang=eng">"I can do all things though Christ which strengtheneth me"</a> </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
we picked out back in September to be our family's </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
theme for the school year.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
But as hit after hit came,</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I forgot more & more.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Darkness closed in. It was awful.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Really, this story does have a happy ending. Hang with me.....</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
At my lowest point, I had nowhere else to go but to God.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I've prayed most every day of my entire life</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
but I hadn't been to Him with my <i>heart</i> in quite some time.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I was driven to my knees, pouring out my soul, seeking guidance & comfort.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I searched my scriptures, craving answers from them.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Nothing miraculous happened. Right away.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I kept at it, though.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
And one day, I was with my little baby, and I noticed that I had pure joy filling my heart.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I was just amazed by her & in awe of how awesome she is. </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
The ache in my heart was gone. I could not feel the weight of my burdens!</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
It was amazing. That pain was just gone. I was flooded with gratitude for all my blessings.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
For this unique, blessed life that I get to live. </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
To be a wife & mother! To know that I am a beloved daughter of a Heavenly Father who loves me.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I was so grateful for the Atonement of my Savior who took those burdens from me. </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
It was beautiful.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I felt changed. And all my trials were still right there. </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
And I didn't know how they would be resolved.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
But I had found peace amidst the storm</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
and knew that I could go on in spite of it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGPuGdG2lmDzS0_QmCa0W6nfozzRVySfr4GKntAaQhF-6ZWwRCDA6NP-6WO82BHWyBtJhlRrVTUQ5unTDXCNi4FuhBbR1cX5FquVI2_gXjC052IxBEOJDLDa8wqMU8fsbUKcXgaClASVIx/s1600/1304.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="422" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGPuGdG2lmDzS0_QmCa0W6nfozzRVySfr4GKntAaQhF-6ZWwRCDA6NP-6WO82BHWyBtJhlRrVTUQ5unTDXCNi4FuhBbR1cX5FquVI2_gXjC052IxBEOJDLDa8wqMU8fsbUKcXgaClASVIx/s640/1304.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Oh, man alive, this baby has been such a healing balm</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
to me this past year.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Isn't it interesting how we must learn the same lessons </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
over & over again?</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Turn to God, I'm filled with His love,</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Forget Him and I'm lost.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
So while I could feel a mighty change,</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I struggled with finding that extra "oomph" for life.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
The zest, the exclamation point, the celebration!</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I was feeling at peace but where was my infamous</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
enthusiasm for this existence?</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
You readers are doing great, by the way, </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
keep sitting tight.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
It was around early February,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
I took a late-night trip to Wal Mart.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
That place makes me grumpy & I put off going there</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
for as long as I can.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
But sometimes, it just has to be done.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
I walked into Wal Mart & was stopped in my tracks by this cactus.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
It had the most vibrant pink blossoms!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
I had never noticed anything like it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
I was intrigued & completely mesmerized right there in Wallyworld.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
I stared at this weird little plant and just couldn't believe that a cactus</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
could produce something so vivid & dynamic.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
I had to buy it! And one with yellow, too. My favorite color.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
I was walking around the store with vigor, passion, fervor!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
(I love the thesaurus.) </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
A sensation of overwhelming gratitude was bubbling up inside of me</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
to the point of exhilaration.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
By the time I got home, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
I could barely contain myself.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
At 10:30, I threw open the front door leaving my purchases in the car,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
scrambled down the basement stairs to my husband, </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
and fervidly expressed my thanks to him for being mine, for our children, for our life together!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
I was probably on the verge of seeming really ridiculous but </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
there really was no holding me back.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
Ah HA! I was finally high on life again</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
and absolutely loving it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjc9E596BJJUCprMr1akH3bPxZnpk4EVlfJKpqzuzdouTSKqxdKnCSq9qhyphenhyphenbEcRxsQ-sJN_dqfo2PGflwO7ZGhDAHZGSzBJr8RfAG8kPAdcsJgrBjS-pzLRRMrVgI_vWPTpU-Rz5ty4rT7v/s1600/DSC_4763.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="422" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjc9E596BJJUCprMr1akH3bPxZnpk4EVlfJKpqzuzdouTSKqxdKnCSq9qhyphenhyphenbEcRxsQ-sJN_dqfo2PGflwO7ZGhDAHZGSzBJr8RfAG8kPAdcsJgrBjS-pzLRRMrVgI_vWPTpU-Rz5ty4rT7v/s640/DSC_4763.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
It was always there.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
The beauty, the wonder, the blessings.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I just had to align my will with God's will</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
and press forward with faith.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
He blessed me by putting that spark back in my vision.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I love being able to see the stunning details of my life.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
It doesn't mean that my everyday life is a party.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
We are still going through hard things.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
But I needed this lesson.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
For some reason, </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I feel like I needed to share it with you, too.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Thanks for listening.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
Our church doesn't meet until later in the afternoon</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
so our Sunday mornings have time to be creative.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
Like building forts, painting, reading,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
making messes generally.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
But I have always loved Sundays. </div>

I love how Sundays stimulate all the senses.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
How it looks, feels, sounds, tastes, and smells.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Dressing in Sunday best, feeling inspired to be better,</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
listening to music for the soul, smelling roast & homemade rolls. </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">

<div style="text-align: right;">
I can even remember as a young child</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
how special Sundays felt.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
My mom played such pretty music on the cassette player.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
It felt safe & warm & happy. </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
We had just started going to the LDS church.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
It was a big life change and I could feel the happiness increasing</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
in our family & home.</div>

I will be forever amazed at my mom's courage</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
and sensitivity to God's promptings to press forward after a divorce,</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
raise two little girls,</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
and leave a religion that she'd known her whole life</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
in order to do what she knew was right.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
She joined The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. </div>

<div style="text-align: right;">
I love my job.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
It's more of a calling.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
It is so hard but so amazingly fulfilling.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Yesterday, my little girls & I rode around the city on my bike,</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
loving this weather, taking in the sites, stopping for a snack.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I was like, "Is this really my job? For reals? To share my days with</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
these darlings?"</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I feel so grateful & ebullient.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">

<div style="text-align: right;">
The days can be s o o o o o long.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
And full of so much chaos & frustration. </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I feel like I'm running a marathon in my own home some days!</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
But I am trying to concentrate on my blessings.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
And suddenly, they multiply and my heart is exploding with </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
love & joy for all that I have.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Especially to be a mother. </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">

Part of the perks of being a mom?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
Cookies.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
To bake together, share, deliver, savor!</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
PS: I was out of vanilla extract. Did you know that </div>

Mapleline works great as a substitute?</div>

......and indulgent dinners.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Actually, ever since we were first married,</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Brian requested we have homemade pizza once a week.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
While it's not always homemade,</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
pizza on Friday nights is a must.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
With a movie. </div>

<div style="text-align: right;">
Ha! Pizza to this picture. Nice.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I made these <a href="http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Black-Bean-Brownies/Detail.aspx">Black Bean Brownies</a> for the church picnic today.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Basically you have to mix them up blindfolded with your nose plugged.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
It just seems wrong. But they are gooooood.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
And so dense & moist.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Mapleline worked great in these, too.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
No, really. They are fantastic. Just don't tell anyone that they have black beans in them. :)</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Mia dropped them in the parking lot on the way to the picnic </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
so I don't have a lovely finished product to show.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
But we still shared them and had only crumbs left!</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I am serious! They are so yummy. </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">

Bugg is almost always in an ebullient mood.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
He is such a great example to me.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
He had the giggles big time tonight!</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Maybe it's because I had him wear Addie's pink bib.</div>

You are all so wonderful.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
We are very grateful for all the prayers, notes,</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
texts, visits, calls, etc for Bugg.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
He is so loved. </div>

<div style="text-align: right;">
And he is healthy again!</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
These pictures were taken tonight as I was tucking him in bed.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
He was so happy & had the biggest giggles.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">

<div style="text-align: right;">
Especially when it comes to illness,</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
it would be helpful if he could tell us where it hurts, you know? </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
But it turns out, </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
he was extremely dehydrated from being so sick for so long. </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Which caused some other health issues.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
The poor boy was just lifeless. </div>

Our sweet Bugg who is really the healthiest kid you've ever known</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
has been so sick.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
We can't figure out what's going on.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
He will have a CT scan done tomorrow.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Hopefully leading to some answers. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black;">An hour too early. Which means he will wake up at 5am or earlier. Yikes. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black;">But anyway!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black;">He is cute.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black;"> :)</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black;">So life is pretty fascinating, isn't it? </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black;">It's so incredibly full of blessings & joy!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black;">But it can also be soooooooooo hard.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black;">Unbelievably stinkin' hard. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black;">The despair & heartache have been particularly crushing lately.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black;">I find myself saying "Why this, too?!!" all the time.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black;">Life seems "unfair." Which I know is ridiculous.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black;">Life is <i>LIFE</i>.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black;">I need to count my blessings, right?</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black;">But just when it seemed like I was going to break,</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: black;">angels swooped down & rescued me.</span></div>

Park City, UT is known for its great shopping</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
& scenic town.</div>

However, we were deep enough into the woods,</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
that there was no pressure to go into the city.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Content we were with each other, hot chocolate, some football watching,</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
games, little cousins, good food, some hot tubbin',</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
& being outside in the chilly mountain air.</div>

I hid clues throughout the walk home,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
in the trees,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">

Each clue had a letter on the back</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">
so when she had gathered them all,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: right;">

There were many heart-breaking days for me</div>

<span style="font-size: x-small;">May 2012 ~ tired mama & 1 month old Adeline</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
If I had kept up blogging over the past few months,</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
it would have gone like this:</div>
<br /><div style="text-align: right;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<i>I am fried.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<i>Completely overwhelmed.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<i>Today was hard.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<i>I am so tired.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<i>This is so hard.</i></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Nice, eh? </div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
No worries.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Life sorta got the best of me for awhile there.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
But I've learned a lot and I'm back.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
Older, wiser, & a bit haggard, honestly. </div>
