Posting so soon!

I didn't think I'd post, but here I am.

**I am thankful for life. so simple really, but true and solid. I love my kids to bits and my husband too. I am thankful for my healthy body ( hopefully). I am soooo thankful for the gospel and I've said this before, but now I mean it more! I am thankful for the strength to do my days and enjoy most of them. I am thankful to learn that I can't do most everything all the time and its ok if things don't get done! Life is not about that anyhow. I am realizing that life can be so dang hard but it is such a gift and meant to be enjoyed! I am realizing that life is not about 'money and what to buy'! While we need money to survive it is not about it! I am grateful for my home -small but rich with buzzing sounds! I tell my kids that I love them everyday and each say it back to me and it melts my heart! I am thankful for a faithful husband and he who helps when he needs to! He has always loved me and tells me everyday how much! I am thankful for other family who have been so stalwart in my life. I can pick up the phone and know they are there for me at any given moment, especially my awesome supportive mom/dad! So you see I have a 'basket' full of love that are gifts from God! :)

Sorry for the ah-ha moments lately, but they are true and this is a blog/journal!

Pool!

We had a fun day yesterday swimming, thanks to some friends who invited us to swim on a very hot day! :) We ended it with a nice dinner with them too! Now I want a pool, darn it...:( How nice it would be to walk out your door to instant entertainment and cool off! Hee.. Maybe someday! The pool sorta looked like this. The kids were jumping of the rocks and going down the slide a million times! They had a blast. I even went down the slide a few times!

Preschool Starting Soon!

I met all the cute kids that are coming to my preschool and I am excited about it! We are going to have a lot of fun. I have a few pictures of the cute room. My mom and sister helped me organize it and get it together. I will add more as the school year progresses.
