Monday, January 30, 2012. I have some exciting things going on. Stop by the new place. Follow along on the journey. Friday, August 5, 2011. One year ago I hugged my best friend good-bye for the last time. This time last year, Papa Joe was set free from all of the pain.

Sunday, June 11, 2017. Special Olympics Summer Games 2017 Gymnastics. She has been asking to do gymnastics for a couple of years and we kept telling her.

Sunday, November 18, 2012. Whimpers and gurgles and sobs. Last week I was rather mindlessly wandering around Safeway when I came upon the adult diapers I had once bought for and put on Tad. Quite unexpectedly I found myself whimpering in the middle of the brash light and mind-numbing supermarket colors of the personal hygiene aisle. I quickly calmed the tears and went to the check out.

Friday, September 9, 2011. THE FALL IS COMING! My favorite time of year is the fall. It is already starting to happen in Provo and here in St. George it feels like it takes FOREVER for fall to be here! I love the trees changing and the cool weather, not too cold - not too hot! Well all my boys had birthdays.

The laughter, the tears and everything in between. Friday, March 8, 2013. I was only gone for a minute and came back to this. Climb onto my desk, and, most importantly, reach things on the kitchen counter like tomatoes or toys, clean dishes, or breakable things. About five minutes after I wrote this, Eli climbed up to my desk, grabbed a blue permanent marker and scribbled on my desk! .
