Fish out of water

I did something I have only done one other time in my life.  I called the temple and had a name put in there.  I have put names when I have gone but that was not an option today.  There was a peace after I did that.  Not sure it will do any good but we will know after tomorrow. 

We are leaving tomorrow for Utah which will start a crazy two-three weeks.  Not sure I am ready for all the things that are going to happen.  But they are going to happen whether or not I am ready. 

I got an email from my sister in law today.  I really wish people would not tell me things that they don't want other people to know.  It will come out I am sure but why tell me when I am not the person who will be effected. 

Maybe it is this pregnancy but I am feeling really out of place when it comes to family.  I wish I could be more specific but since I know family reads this then I am feel like I can't really say everything I want to say. 

I guess I should go pack and pray that all goes well tomorrow and that we have answer one way or another.

Andrew turned eight yesterday and I am so thankful for him. He is become such a deep thinker and asks these amazing questions that I don't always have the answers to. The meds have helped slow him down but he is still crazy Andrew. We upped the medications and it was like he was on speed. He couldn't sleep and was kind of zombie like. Then there has been a few moments wher

The one you feed...

A few weeks ago Lee text me this story.  One evening, an elderly cherokee brave told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people. he said "my son, the battle is between two 'wolves' inside us all. one is evil. it is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego. the other is good. it is joy, peace love, hope serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith." the grandson though about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather: "which wolf wins?..." the old cherokee simply replied, "the one that you feed"  One I have heard 100 times but one that I needed at that moment although I didn't know it.  There have been several situations that have happened these past few weeks and I keep thinking of that story and I have to remind myself which wolf I am feeding.
