No more news!!!

The news keeps coming some good and some bad and some we haven't had time to process with everything going on. 

I took a last minute trip to Denver with a 14 year old mom and her baby.  I am amazed at this girl's strength as she takes such good care of her little baby.  The baby has been in the hospital for almost two months and will be for another one maybe two.  I have deciede that if my kids ever need major health care we won't stay in Boise.  I am thinking that we will probably go to Seattle due to the fact that we have free room and board and shoulder to cry on.  Although I have been impressed with the hospital here.

At this point I don't know what the future holds.  And I am pretty certain that at this point ingnorance is bliss. 

I can do diffcult things.  I can do things that I never thatough that I would be able to do.  I have done things I never thought possible.  Tomorrow is a new day full of uncertainity. 

Silverwood in just about a week well we leave in eight days.  Hoping and praying that my sister in law can  go.  If not we will survive. 

Life is good.   It is hard and sometimes you have to ask yourself "How did that happen?" 

The sun will come up tomoorrow and we will be okay despite tonight being stressful and overwhelming.

I prayed she would qualify and felt strongly she would. As we left her away at the meet she was certain as were we that she hadn't qualified and then the clouds parted and she will be able to run. She told me she prayed that she would have a good last high school race. and her last race was not grea. There were tears. And rears when she called me to tell me she qualified. So rad trip to ther side of teh state next weekend Wednesday Jake is going through the temple. So many mixed feelings for so many reasons. I shouldn't expect people to show up but sometimes it is just so hard when my mom is the only "church...

Covid 19

Words can not expressed the range of emotions I am feeling at the moment.  One week ago we had it all planned out.  Then Covid happened.  And the whole world was suddenly on hold.  Kids had school Monday but then have been out for ten days and are scheduled to return on the 20th of April.  However most people think that is unlikely.  My heart is breaking for graduating seniors.  We cancelled our trip to Zion which may have happened any way because it was calling for snow.  I hope we will rise from this stronger but right now I feel like curling up in a ball and crying. Lee now has work at home options since we have not been put on "lockdown" at this point although several other areas and cities across the county including a few in Idaho have been. I try and  look for the good.  Healthy kids, good weather, lots of projects we put off being completed.  But some moments it feels like we are missing on so much. We did church at ho...
When you know somebody is having a hard time in their marriage.  Pull them closer.  Ask to take the kids for a weekend.  Bring them dinner.  Reach out to them.  Ask them how they are doing.   Don't insist on visiting or having them visit you.  Know that their world feels like it is falling apart and it is taking every bit of energy to put on a good face for the kids and to work and run a household.  And it is has to be done while they continue to reside with somebody who they are struggling to have the most basic of conversation with.
