Today's Quote

“As parents, we should remember that our lives may be the book from the family library which the children most treasure. Are our examples worthy of emulation? Do we live in such a way that a son or a daughter may say, ‘I want to follow my dad,’ or ‘I want to be like my mother’? Unlike the book on the library shelf, the covers of which shield its contents, our lives cannot be closed. Parents, we truly are an open book in the library of learning of our homes.” Thomas S Monson

I am FULL!

I am overflowing with so much this Holiday Season. Some good, some bad, some in between.

I am angry, I am grateful, I am sad, I am awestruck....I WAS afraid. I AM hopeful.

I L O V E my life and My Little Family.

I think I am seeing clearer than in the past. And now I need to make my mouth be quiet till I sort out if I'm actually supposed to SHARE what I see.

I WILL say that Christmas is going to be a turning point. I swear it is.

I am not spending ONE penny that I don't have a SUPERIORLY good reason to.

This is hard, as I have looked around, and Jacob and Elizabeth DEFINITELY need some new clothes. And all of My Kids need at least one pair of new shoes.

But I'm going to pay my tithing FIRST. And then my major bills. And see what that does.

And starting Christmas, I am expecting more of certain people, including myself. And not including as many people in as many things.
