"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 Valentines Day...

Valentines Day...a day of LOVE...so whats better then spending it with the ones i LOVE the most!!!
this year valentines day was on a sunday...a little strange.
before church I gave the boys their little love gifts..each one got their favorite candies and a small stuffed animal
kaylin got his emoji pillow and a heart with lots of different sour candies....
kiptin got a heart full of twix bars and a soft little puppy...
khailo got a spiderman heart full of gummies and a little giraffe animal, he loves giraffes....
karbon got a little stuffed dragon and an outfit that says "Mr. Hunk"....
I love my boys so much, I love that there is an extra day to show them some special love from us!

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.
