Inspiring people

Girls,

Today We got up; and instead of heading to breakfast for having daddy make the usual bacon and pancakes. We rushed to do our hair, put our pretty dresses on and head out the door to a funeral. Girls you didn't even know the individual that I was going to honor today, but you showed great respect and love for me and the individual that I lost.

This Man was the very first Bishop I knew. He guided me to my temple marriage and help me out so many times that he doesn't even know. He gave me my first calling the in primary. He was also someone that my family very much respected. My dad (your Papa) worked very close with him in the church. He was a very spiritual man that will be missed very much by lots of friends and family.

I also had the opportunity to run into so many of the moms that I learned from. I use to watch so many of these mom's young kids and I learned from all of them. They have touched my life in so many ways they will never know.

I also ran into a Siminary teacher I will never forget and still to this day he knows my name, and never forgets to call and wish me a happy birthday. (Wow!) I wish someday I can be like that!

Girls if there is anything in life that I hope you experience and can always remember it is Inspiring people. You will come across a lot of them and I know that they will all touch your life in some way.

Love you! Thank you for being perfect in every way!

Mom

MIA for a long time...

OK Girls... It has been a long time since I have made journal of anything for you. What can I say I am having so much fun with you!

Really I have had so many thoughts and cute things happen with us that I just haven't taken the time to write them down... So I am going be better.

Makinley with the new year coming I can't wait to see how much more you will grow and how much more you will change. You will discover new friends, adventures, and most of all something new about yourself. Already it is hard for me to believe that you are 6 and will in a few short months be turning 7. Life goes by so quickly and there is nothing I can say to help you see that now.

Makinley just to give you an idea of how loving and how fun (funny) you can be. I picked you up from school your first day back from Christmas break and I asked you "How was school today sweety" without even responding to my question you smiled and said "ALEX & I decided to just be friends!" I don't even know what to say to that... You are such a fun daughter to have around.

Kennedy...Kennedy... Sometimes that is all I have to say for it to explain everything about you. You are still so young to realize that my love for you will only get stronger, sillier, longer, and then someday I hope to be your best friend. You have so much personality that sometimes I just sit back and find myself looking at the clock and another hour has come and gone, and I am happy just because I spent it watching you.

Kennedy most recently you have said some of the cutest things... Not to long ago your Grandma Diane and I were watching you be your silly self and you were asked, "Kennedy did you get that pretty face from your Heavenly Father" You responded without even thinking about it, "NO! I got it at Disney Land" So many times things like this are said by you. I promise that I will do better at recording them. I just have to also add that you strongly feel like you came from Wal-Mart...It all started when one day you Grandma was watching you like I find myself doing all to often, She turned to you and asked, "Kennedy where did you come from?" You turned to her with much wittiness and answered, "From Wal-Mart" Enough said:)

Girls this new year is going to be fun, happy, existing, and so much more. Your Dad & I talk all the time about what might come up or what we want to do with you, we only hope that they all happen and you guys are happy as ever.

Love,

Your Mommy:)
