I am so glad...

I never read the news any more. There's no time! But last night I had time, and read a little. I remembered then that the world is a great big place full of all kinds of serious problems. Almost all of which I have absolutely no control or influence in. And I remembered that I have such a good life full of comforts and ease and freedoms and peace in a beautiful place. Here where the ocean is just a walk away from home. Here where almost everyday the sky is such a bright blue just looking up at it feels good. And where from my front door I can watch the moon, huge and orange, rising up from the horizon. And I remembered that families are so important, and that I have such good family on all sides and directions.

And so even as I feel the pressures of things that need to be done and lack of time to do it all, I am so glad for everything I am living right now.

This morning Sarah said to me when she woke up "Oh mom, I'm so glad your here!"
ME TOO!!!

Leah's photography skills

When Ann and I sang at our ward party, hoping to keep Leah busy in her
seat, we gave her the phone and asked her to take some pictures of us
singing. This is a sample of what she got....

I had to post this becuase it's so funny. EVERYONE had these silly
useless monkeys on their heads. They came in all different colors and
styles, but served no other purpose except to sit atop your head
looking silly. Cracks me up.

Auntie Ann

So really I have been on my lap top since 5 this morning working on lesson plans becuase i don't want to wait till next Sunday night and be stressing! and my toes feel numb becuase it is cold (really!) and my legs and bum need to move, and I need to get going on the day and all that stuff. But I am just figuring out this Picasa magic. It is really quite cool. So here we are my sister Ann and I. How I love my sisters! CAN NOT WAIT to see you ladies in March! and then again in the summer!!! how stoked are we?
