"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

mom turns 29....eeek.

this is it. the last year of my young years. i have been so sad about this
i want time to just freeze now and not move ahead...at least for my age sake.
i love my life right now, im so happy with everything about it. my kids are great
my husband is the best man for me and truly makes me want to be better.
i never thought i would have a hard time with getting older but i actually do.
i will make this year the best year yet. im getting into great shape, the best i have ever been, eating better and being happy! there is so much to be thankful for and i am thankful each day for what i have and where i am in life.
this will be the year that will end one GREAT chapeter in my (our) life and move us to a new one, with that..those feeling are super hard for me yet exciting as well.
this year i hope to bless someone life, big or small, and make a difference to someone or something!

i know they will think its a really cool place!
today is great because all i want is to share it with my 4 favorite guys!


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.
