Our Family: January 2019

"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 NEW YEAR 2019

Makes my life so sad that another year is gone. One more year that my boy are older, one more year that I'm older 😫😭.
I wish I could freeze time.. i love the stage my littles are in and want them to stop growing...but I also know its inevitable and that's the way life is designed.
2018 had some major ruff times, they were hard for me. I'm hoping 2019 will be our jumping point and life can get better for us financially so we can enjoy this worlds wonders with our boys. I feel like the worst parent that way, we never get to plan fun vacations for them and I feel like a failure for that. Hoping this year will be better for them!
Last night nick and I made it to midnight finally...lol... we usually fall asleep by 1030.... kaylin ran off with his friends to party..so that just left us and the 3 others...we played some games, Drank some sparkly juice and then they waited for the midnight fireworks!

I'm praying that this year will finally be the year we can breathe a little... I'm hoping this year we will be better to teach our boys about our beautiful gospel and be walk with christ and that we will teach them to keep him close and he will always guide them and care for them with all his love!

Heres to 2019 and a new year to make new memories together with these boys and husband I love so much!

"your not very good dad, you should let me show you how to do it"

"Iam really snart, i know stuff " (snart: meaning smart)

set up: kaylin wants to sleep in our bed.

"kaylin you need to sleep in your own big boy bed"

"but that is my 3 year old bed and I'm 4 so now I can sleep in this bed with you. its a 4 year old bed"

set up: kiptin pulled the filter off the vacume and I couldn't figure out how to put it back on.

"no kaylin leave it alone, let daddy fix it"

"I can do it...see mom, fixed"

(a very stupid mom moment for sure...its sad when your 4yr old is smarter then you)

“One’s life….cannot be both faith-filled and stress-free….Therefore, how can you and I really expect to guide naively through life, as if to say, ‘Lord, give me experience, but not grief, not sorrow, not pain, not opposition, not betrayal, and certainly not to be forsaken. Keep from me, Lord, all those experiences which made Thee what Thou art! Then let me come and dwell with Thee and fully share Thy joy!’ Real faith….is required to endure this necessary but painful developmental process.” Neal A. Maxwell
