Feeling the Feels Friday

 Well, I started the day decently enough...but, unfortunately, my anxious feelings returned and ended up getting the best of me by early afternoon.  I don't like it when that happens...but it happened and I couldn't snap out of it.  Jon suffers the most when this happens.  I'm usually able to fake it for the kids.  Hopefully I will wake up feeling well tomorrow.  Jon is with the girls right now (Lizzie went to a little girls night at a friends house and Caitlyn went shopping with him).  I just had a nice cry on my bed.  Sometimes a good cry is all I need to start feeling better.

The boys are going to sleep in the tent tonight on our family room floor.  They were so excited, especially little William Lincoln.  What studs!





The boys eating Popsicles in the garage after dinner.




Our neighbors live on a mini farm.  They have pigs, chickens, sheep, etc.  William loves looking at the animals.



Playing video games after school work today.


William loves his peanut butter sandwiches!


This adorable little girl starting writing her own book today!  Of course, it about two sisters, Lizzie and Caitlyn.


The kids used their tickets today to buy prizes from the treasure box!





Daddy has an app on his phone that connects to one of William's Ghostbusters toys.  Holograms of Ghosts appear and William loves it!



Mason got 100% on his Math test today!



Our entry way has officially turned into a school, ha ha.



The kids love using the windows as their "white boards".



We purchased a subscription to Reading Eggs.  We are hoping it will help William learn his alphabet and that it will help Caitlyn with her reading.  They both started trying it today and it's been great so far.  The worry that I have for my kids is sometimes so overwhelming.

2021 Summary

 2021...What a year! Some Highlights: I read the Book of Mormon 4 times this year (one time I finished in 29 days!) We studied the Doctrine and Covenants for Come follow Me! Lizzie Started Highschool (and seminary)! William started Kindergarten! I got depressed being home without the kids...so I got my first job in 14 years! I was called to be the ward Young Women President in January. Jon is still serving in the Bishopric, this year as the 2nd Counselor. Bryce was ordained to the office of a Deacon and serves as the Deacon Quorum President. Jon broke his foot in March and had to have surgery. Our fruit trees produced no fruit this year, which was sad. Lizzie was extremely sick for about 2 months.  She had ovarian cysts, major constipation, and valley fever! We had the opportunity to listen to two General Conferences, which are my favorite holiday's. We went to Last Vegas after Christmas 2020, we went to Utah for Kynzlee's baptism, we went to Utah for the 4th of July holiday, ...

Feeling Awful

 I feel awful about something that I did today.  Well, something that I DIDN'T do.  I feel like the worst person in the world.  I feel like horrible.  I was prompted to do something and I ignored the prompting.  It's eating me up. It's short, so I'll explain it here. I went to Relief Society today.  The first time in about three years.  I sat with Jon's Mom.  I noticed a girl sitting in front of me who was sitting alone.  I chatted with her.  I had the thought to sit next to her so she wouldn't have to sit alone, but I didn't feel like I could leave Sandy.  I didn't want to make Sandy feel bad by leaving her so I ignored the prompting.  Then I went and accompanied a song on the piano.  While I was playing I had the thought, again, that I needed to sit next to this girl.  I decided that I would sit next to her on my way back instead of sitting next to Sandy.  However, as I walked back, someone else was sittin...

The Last of the Spring Break, 2019 Posts

It's been a long 2 weeks!  It's been so wonderful though and I am really not ready for the kids to go back to school tomorrow.  I love having them home and I love having our freedom and no real responsibilities.  Summer couldn't come soon enough! We found out this week that Grandpa Duncan had a stroke.  We were all so sad.  We all fasted for him and have been praying every day for his recovery.  Even 7-year-old Mason, who has never fasted before, wanted to fast for Grandpa.  He dd so well and I was so proud of him!  We can hardly wait until June when we can visit Nana and Grandpa in person. I didn't realize it, but one of the days this week I did Walmart Pick-up (where I order things on-line and then the worker brings the groceries out to my car) and accidentally ordered A TON of these chocolate eggs!  They truly are the best chocolate egg in the world, so I'm not really complaining...but what in the world are we going to do with the...
