Family Matters

October 1, 2015

Today, I find myself reflecting on family. I’ve been telling myself I’ll get around to getting my thoughts written down. Sadly, thinking about it and actually getting it done are not the same thing.  Watching a young friend lose their battle with cancer this week has bumped me out of my procrastination zone. Time is precious.…

Cruis’n Our Camp Kick Off

April 23, 2015

I’ve been called as the camp director for our ward this year. The theme is nautical, and our ward was assigned the group of Latter Day Pioneers in conjunction with our overall theme of “Anchor Your Soul in Christ”.  So we’re going on a cruise via “Pioneer Cruise Lines”. Can I just say how grateful I…

Successful Gingerbread Creations

November 22, 2014

This article has been buried for a long time. I thought maybe it was time to resurrect it with the holidays coming on. Don’t let yourself be intimidated to make a gingerbread house from scratch! I taught myself and every year we’ve had a smashing success. Maybe this year, I’ll update this one with some…

Act On Every Worthy Thought

October 16, 2014

Why is it so easy to question yourself, to second guess simple things? Today I caught myself doing it again. I’d had a thought a few weeks ago to reach out to someone. It wasn’t anything big, just a simple hello but I talked myself out of it thinking I was just being silly. The…

Ups and Downs

Ups and Downs

September 17, 2014

Life seems to be full of roller coaster moments, lots of ups and downs. I guess you can’t know the ups without the downs, but I much prefer the ups. Four months ago I was in the hospital on bed rest. Three and a half months ago I had a c-section. Two and half weeks…

The Short List

May 23, 2014

Or should I say, short end of the stick? I landed in the hospital Wednesday night thanks to a fluid leak. :/ I was hoping for an overnight monitoring, but the short list says otherwise. Here’s how it was just explained to me: We like the baby’s tests but mom has too many factors for…

32 is Groovy

April 30, 2014

Yes, age 32 was a groovy year, but this time I’m referring to being 32 weeks pregnant. This morning’s appointment was great. They took new measurements of the baby and all is well. She’s very active! She weighs about 3 lb 15 oz, which is right on the money for my guess as I told…

Heads Up!

April 18, 2014

Yesterday, bugaboo decided it was time to go heads up! For the first time, she changed position. We finally have a profile! Granted, she was still pretty diligent about moving her hands and arms up over her face, but the tech did manage to capture a few shots in-between.   Yay! She continues to do…

All Things Revealed

February 10, 2014

Dearest Little One, We finally made it to your appointment! That took F O R E V E R.  I truly can’t tell you how long the 4 weeks was between this appointment and your last. While it was wonderful to hear your little heartbeat in January and see visible growth in mommy’s belly, it…

Committing

November 12, 2013

Dearest Little One, I struggle to find the energy required to do very much these days. I’ve been working on sharing more thoughts with you through this post for several days. Each day I’m sure I’ll find the right time when I will sit and sift through my feelings and put them eloquently into words…
