Snuggle time with this boy is the best! He isn't going to want to snuggle with me in the mornings forever so I will take what I can get while it lasts! I love these precious moments! I sure love this boy!
Tis the season to be jolly!! We have Christmas decorations at our house and the stockings all hung. It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas! The boys even added some snow as a new Christmas decoration. Ha! I told them the story of the Three Trees and they said "That was not a good story!" Yael said, "I don't get it!" So funny. I want to read a story about Christ each night during this time of year. I would like to focus on reading the scriptures each day as a family for the new year.
Whoever said happiness comes with sunshine, has never danced in the rain.
"Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass by; it's about learning to dance in the rain."
Risks
To laugh is to risk appearing the fool,
To weep is to risk appearing sentimental,
To reach out for another is to risk involvement,
To expose feelings is to risk exposing your true self,
To live is to risk dying,
To hope is to risk despair,
To try is to risk failure,
But risks must be taken, because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing. The person who risks nothing does nothing, has nothing, and is nothing.
He may avoid suffering and sorrow but he simply cannot learn, feel, change, grow, love, and live.
Chained by his certitudes, he is a slave, he has forfeited freedom.
Only a person who risks is free.

Doing What We Do Best
This is the Life
Our Happy Place
The Towners
The Symes
The best thing to hold on to in life is each other
Dance as if it is your last
Dance as though no one is watching
Luke 12:34
"For Where Your Treasure Is, There will Your Heart be also."
Luke 12:31
"Seek Ye The Kingdom of God; And All These Things Shall Be Added Unto You."
Yesterday is History
Today is a Gift!
The Future is a Mystery
Good Ones
2 Tim. 1:7 For God has not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and love, and of sound mind.
Psalms 34:4 I sought the Lord, and He heard me and delivered me from all my fears.
2 Cor. 5:7 For we walk by faith, not by sight.
Things Work Out
"It isn't as bad as you sometimes think it is.
It all works out. Don't worry.
I say this to myself every morning. It will all work out.
Put your trust in God and move forward with Faith and confidence in the future.
The Lord will not forsake us. He will not forsake us,...... if we will put our trust in Him, if we will pray to Him, if we will live worthy of His blessings, He will hear our prayers."
