Sick Day

Ive been sick for the past week with a sinus infection/cold. Jaron caught it, and he is sick now too. He decided not to go into work because it's pretty contagious. Treva just came and picked up all the kids and took them to her house to take care of them so we can rest. (Which is extra wonderful because I am due to have this new baby any day!) All of the kids squealed in excitement when she showed up. They love her so much! She is so good to us, always showing up and saving the day. She is always choosing to serve and love us with all her heart. We are so blessed to live close to Grandma 💜

O Remember, Remember

"Tonight, and tomorrow night, you might pray and ponder, asking the questions: 'Have I seen the hand of God reaching out to touch us or our children or our family today? Did God send a message that was just for me?  Did I see His hand in my life or the lives of my children?' I will do that.  And then I will find a way to preserve that memory for the day that I, and those that I love will need to remember how much God loves us and how much we need Him.  I testify that He loves us and blesses us, more than most of us have yet recognized." O Remember, Remember By President Henry B. Eyring October 2007

A no good day. maybe.

Today was a no good day. We had a lot of problems.

The good of this day is in the last sentence.

The Time We Lost Ellie

We lost Ellie yesterday.  It was so horrible.  We went to Jaron's parents house for the evening for the 4th of July. Toward dusk, I felt like we should go home and put the dogs inside.  I didn't listen.  We got home so late, and my mom did too (she was with Topher). She called me and said Ellie wasn't home.  We looked everywhere.  For hours.  Jaron and Grant went out.  Kayli and Tyler Treva  Patrick  Topher even came out to help us look  She was nowhere.  I went out to look too, while I could get away from Haley. I ended up at the cemetery feeling hopeless. I went to Auntie's grave and poured out my heart. I begged for help from Auntie and Pat and any angel that could be spared. I cried and cried and pled with God to bring Ellie home for Grant.  My poor Grant.   He was distraught.  Absolutely shattered.  The few times Jaron called me while they were out looking I could hear him sobbing in th...
