This is just an update on things going on around here (I have an extra 5 minutes). Kaytlin started her 3rd season of soccer last Tues. Her first game of the season will be on Saturday at 10AM. After that Isaac is going to his friends birthday party. I can't believe how many friends that boy has!!! He's doing great in preschool and loving it. Kaytlin is doing fine in school. Her reading abilities have soared! Just in that last few months her reading vocabulary has increased so much.
Josh is working like crazy but this new scheduled really seems to be working for both of us. He's been home by around 5 every night. So he gets to spend about 2 hours with the kids before they go to bed at 7. I'm still not sure when he'll work on school stuff.
Today I went canning for the first time. This whole week has been very spiritual for me. I've had some experiences that are very personal so I won't write about them but I will say that I have definately felt the spirit all around me this week. We got a card in the mail from Nana and Papa yesterday. It was an anniversary card for our 5th year having been sealed together. I can't believe they remembered! Since Saturday is the day and we are going to be incredibly busy, Josh is taking Friday off from work and we'll spend the whole day together. Of course I don't get the day off but thats okay.
In the card Nana wrote that our Heveanly Father has blessed us for the choices that we have made. So TRUE!!!! My family is blessed. We are happy, healthy, have the gospel, and we have so much love for each other. Even my children still love each other!!! And they don't even drive me that nuts. Of course I was nuts before I had them but the level of nutsness hasn't increased THAT much.. Heavenly Father truly loves us and we thank him so much!!!
Okay, so life around here is very hectic but I can't think of anything else to say. Time to go make dinner. Oh, and nana and papa also sent twenty dollars in the card for us all to go out for an icecream treat. The kids were stoked out of their minds. I think that's all they cared about... nevermind that it has ALREADY been five years.
Sadly it is also a reminder of another five year anniversary coming up. I'm still crying over it. I wonder when that will stop. It doesn't feel like that long ago, but it is. I wish more than anything she could be here with me to share all that our lifes have become. I still have the urge to pick up the phone and call her. Part of my mind still waits for her to call me. Part of me still wants to scream that it's not fair but then the other part says that it's okay.... she's happy right. I try not to think about it too much but sometimes it just hits me, like right now....
Okay, enough tears... time to go.
