"Throughout our lives, we must deal with change. Some changes are welcome; some are not. There are changes in our lives which are sudden, such as the unexpected passing of a loved one, an unforeseen illness, the loss of a possession we treasure. But most of the changes take place subtly and slowly. Day by day, minute by minute, second by second we went from where we were to where we are now. The lives of all of us, of course, go through similar alterations and changes. The difference between the changes in my life and the changes in yours is only in the details. Time never stands still; it must steadily march on, and with the marching come the changes. This is our one and only chance at mortal life—here and now. The longer we live, the greater is our realization that it is brief. Opportunities come, and then they are gone. I believe that among the greatest lessons we are to learn in this short sojourn upon the earth are lessons that help us distinguish between what is important and what is not. I plead with you not to let those most important things pass you by as you plan for that illusive and nonexistent future when you will have time to do all that you want to do. Instead, find joy in the journey—now. Let us relish life as we live it, find joy in the journey, and share our love with friends and family. One day each of us will run out of tomorrows. " Thomas S. Monson

Happy 5th Birthday Kaylin...


Happy birthday to my beautiful little boy, i cant believe you are 5!
Kaylin you are such an amazing son, we look at you and talk about how blessed we are to have you. We could never write down the way we feel about you, it just could never be told in words, its so much stronger then words! YOU ARE JUST SO AMAZING! you have such a long way this past year and are not a baby anymore, as much as i want you to be i just have to realize you are a young boy now and can do things on your own even though i still think i have to do everything for you cause thats just what i have always done, but you have proved me wrong the past little bit and shown me i need to let you go a little more on your own now! You will ALWAYS be my little baby boy no matter how old you are though just remember that!

This year we planned just a little family party for you and you chose a big present...a new polaris predator 50cc fourwheeler, and you have been out on that everyday showing us how good of a rider you are becoming, you are even a little bit of a show off when other people are around! but we love it and love watching you enjoy it and have so much fun!
When we went to buy your wheeler up north we happend to find a way better deal on a newer model but there was only one problem..it was pink. We asked you if it would be ok if we bought it and would change the color of the plastics for you and you were not having it...pink just was not what you wanted...BUT dad said what if we stay in a hotel for the night then could we buy the pink one???....you smiled and yelled YES! so we bought the pink one and ordered some new plastics and you have been so happy ever since!

We just want to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY again kaylin and tell you we love you with all and more of our hearts and we couldnt have asked for a better kid then you!!!

love you FOREVER!




















good advice!

Be very careful if you make a woman cry, because God counts her tears. The woman came out of a man's rib, not from his feet to be walked on, not from his head to be superior, but from his side to be equal! Under the arm to be protected, & next to the heart to be loved.
