Our Family: May 2017

"Throughout our lives, we must deal with change. Some changes are welcome; some are not. There are changes in our lives which are sudden, such as the unexpected passing of a loved one, an unforeseen illness, the loss of a possession we treasure. But most of the changes take place subtly and slowly. Day by day, minute by minute, second by second we went from where we were to where we are now. The lives of all of us, of course, go through similar alterations and changes. The difference between the changes in my life and the changes in yours is only in the details. Time never stands still; it must steadily march on, and with the marching come the changes. This is our one and only chance at mortal life—here and now. The longer we live, the greater is our realization that it is brief. Opportunities come, and then they are gone. I believe that among the greatest lessons we are to learn in this short sojourn upon the earth are lessons that help us distinguish between what is important and what is not. I plead with you not to let those most important things pass you by as you plan for that illusive and nonexistent future when you will have time to do all that you want to do. Instead, find joy in the journey—now. Let us relish life as we live it, find joy in the journey, and share our love with friends and family. One day each of us will run out of tomorrows. " Thomas S. Monson

Monster Truck Show...

We took the boys down to stg to a monster truck show...the big boys loved it, khailo was nervous at first and Karbon was absolutely terrified til about the middle of the show!

Happy Mothers Day to ME 2017!....

It's a BLESSING to be a mama to these four boys! It was a nice relaxing day...well as relaxing as it could be...nick had been gone working in Oklahoma for almost 3 weeks and I was one tired mama by this point..but none the less the boys made it so sweet, kaylin even watched the boys for a good few hours while I took a nap, they made me cute gifts and flowers and kaylin and kiptin even brought me in the SWEETEST note ever before they went to bed...made my WHOLE NIGHT..He used a hashtag #mominamillon that was THEE cutest thing I have ever seen!!! They make me so proud.
Don't get me wrong for one second...they drive me crazy, mad, nuts, to the looney bin...BUT they also make me smile, melt my heart to goo, fill me with joy, make me complete and have completely shown me what true unconditional LOVE really is. Something I don't think anyone can fully grasp until they have a little one of their own.
I want to rip out my hair some days, stay in bed and not "ADULT" some days but no matter how I am feeling I will always get up and be their mommy til my dying breath I will do whatever I can for these little boys no matter what...they area my world and I Love them with my whole entire beating heart!
Thank you for making me a mommy and choosing me to love you in this life, I will always be here for you, unconditionally I will love you forever!

Kaylin's Funnies!

set up: nick and kaylin are playing video games.

"your not very good dad, you should let me show you how to do it"

"Iam really snart, i know stuff " (snart: meaning smart)

set up: kaylin wants to sleep in our bed.

"kaylin you need to sleep in your own big boy bed"

"but that is my 3 year old bed and I'm 4 so now I can sleep in this bed with you. its a 4 year old bed"

set up: kiptin pulled the filter off the vacume and I couldn't figure out how to put it back on.

"oh mom why did you take this off, let me fix it"

"no kaylin leave it alone, let daddy fix it"

"I can do it...see mom, fixed"

(a very stupid mom moment for sure...its sad when your 4yr old is smarter then you)

“One’s life….cannot be both faith-filled and stress-free….Therefore, how can you and I really expect to guide naively through life, as if to say, ‘Lord, give me experience, but not grief, not sorrow, not pain, not opposition, not betrayal, and certainly not to be forsaken. Keep from me, Lord, all those experiences which made Thee what Thou art! Then let me come and dwell with Thee and fully share Thy joy!’ Real faith….is required to endure this necessary but painful developmental process.” Neal A. Maxwell
