We Are Blessed!

Simple reasons we feel blessed of late:

  • The pregnancy continues to go smoothly. After last year, this is our biggest blessing. Elizabeth feels a bit more tired, but who wouldn't? This goes to prove--again--that Mother's Day will always be infinitely more important than Father's Day :). 
  • Kadence had her bilingual kindergarten program and did so well! We'll post some pictures of her singing and dancing in Espanol.
  • Tayah has really done a great job having less fits the past month or so. We are so grateful! 
  • Both girls are reading machines. Kadence really is advanced for her age (second grade level). And the fun thing: Tayah is reading earlier than Kadence did. We're thankful that our children love books (and that they don't watch much television). 
  • The girls enjoyed Spring Break. We didn't plan any vacations because, frankly, Spring Break isn't anything out of the ordinary for us yet. Perhaps next year, when Kadence is at school all day, it will take on new meaning in our lives. 
  • Stockton is the sweetest boy one could find. He still bestows on parents, sisters, and grandparents "tight squeezes." 
  • Whenever he hears something, he'll exclaim "I hear something!" while putting his hand to his ear. Simple things our children do will always be things we cherish.
  • The Jazz made the Playoffs! I know most of you don't care one iota, which is fine. I am just proud of this team which has exceeding ALL expectations in this, a rebuilding year. 
  • We're doing well on our resolution to attend the temple monthly. Ditto on daily scriptures and family prayer.
  • This list could go on and on with the many, many ways we feel blessed.
