Which is it?

Last night as Lee was packing for his trip he made a comment about how every thing seemed to be going wrong. He made a comment about how maybe the adversary was trying to stop him from this trip and I said or maybe God is.  We will never know which is which.  :) 

Lee left 12 hours ago and I am already ready for him to come home.  Tonight has been tough but I think me working all day played into that.  Even thought I wished I could have gone to Pocatello today it worked out that I didn't,  We have been praying for Lee's aunts family that they may find some comfort in this that maybe with time they will be at peace.

We are counseled to mourn with those who mourn.  I think we don't always do a good job at that,  So while I may complain about the bike trip I won't complain about Lee leaving early to go to Pocatello, although other people did.  I grew up where funerals were important and although my dad despised them he would always encourage my mom to go even it meant him staying home with the four girls for several days,

I had somebody ask to share my testimony.  I was happy to do so and it made me realize once again what I really believe in and what I don't.   Sometimes I need that reality check I need somebody to ask me what do you believe in and how did you get there?  Everybody has a story and I believe that most people want to share that story with others, 

Last weekend at my leadership retreat we talked about celebrating.  Not just the big things or the normal things like babies and birthdays but the small things as well.  I do this but maybe not enough made me realize that we have lots to celebrate and I want to celebrate more.

Feeling all the Feels

Right now I am feeling all the feels. We had such a great week with my nephew and Jake. The house is louder and has more enegy when all four kids are home. And our nephew is seriously one of favoriate people. He lets the boys hand on him and they just look up to him so muchd. So I am writting because I am not sure what else to do at this pount. I have been applying for a job(s) that I have been inspired to do for a long time. I have been really trying to to step upside of my comfort zone and apply for things that I know I can do although I have never done them before. I have been considering doing some writing and writing a book. I have no desire to be published I just want to be able to start being more creative . I have so many fears about so many things. Missy Kay turned 19 today and Andrew had his first tennis meet of the seaon. I am thankful for my people who show up to support and love us. There was this moment at the meet where one of the parents gave me haug aft...

Not diredctly although I fee like that is coming but more just heartbreak for so many around me. Yesterday Victoria quailfied for state. It was an answer to a prayer. 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...

It has been a week

Here is how the week went Monday: OUr 25th anniversary. I was sick. We went and tried a Cuban restrant not as good as the food we had in Miami but it was good. We love trying new local places. It ended in tears. I won't go into all the details but I am relaizing that this is not the marriage I want. I am open about what I need and we will go from there. Luke started wrestling. Tuesday: End of the year banquent for Luke and Andrew. Luke recevied the "Most Improved" Awared. Here is the thing about that. His coach talked about how during summer practice he wouldn't even run 100 yeards. He would just stop. At some point after the first meet it clicked and he just ran and did what he needed to do. He went up adn accepted the award with such confidence. Wednesday: Both boys had activities. Andrew had stayed home from school due to not felling wel. My guess is he just needed a rest. He was feeling up for going and making pizzas at the Bishop's hous...
