Updating

Things are going well here in the land of corn.(Iowa). My church calling (Primary President for those of you that don't remember) is going okay. We have had our fair share of struggles but the last two weeks have gone well. We had our Stake Primary training and expressed our concerns about some of the ways things were being handled and now they are starting to smooth out. Just in time to make some changes. We have grown to the point that we need to have two sharing times, a junior and senior primary sharing time. WOW...is all I can say right now. I am feeling like it might smooth out sometime in the next few months, then it will be time to be released.

Mother's Day was good for me this year. Melissa got me a garden statue that looks like a ladybug. (Picture above). I wanted it in memory of my mother. We went up to Clark's Tower in the city park and let balloons go off to heaven. I miss my mom and have had some tears flowing these past few weeks because of it. It must be my age because I have never been a crier but the buckets are getting filled up lately. Not all because of missing my mom either.

Melissa is getting older and maybe a little wiser in her choices of guy friends. I like her new friend his name is Patrick he seems nice and he comes over and watches movies and plays with the puppies. Speaking of the puppies they are growing up the both are weighing in at 4lbs these days. They got the big boy shots a couple of weeks ago. Soon they will have the big boy surgery so they don't have any of their own.









I am still working at Mercy Child Development Center in the Pre-Kindergarten room. We just had our preschool graduation on Friday. I would love to tell you all I still love my job. But I can't it has become very stressful lately. I still love working with children but the politics and the cattiness of some of my co-workers gets kind of in the way of enjoying what I was born to do.


I want to end off on a happy note. So let's see what else am I doing oh yeah!!!! Nothing I have no life... But I got this poem from another person thought it was pretty good.It is called:
It depends whose hands it's in
A basketball in my hands is worth about $19
A basketball in Michael Jordan's hands is worth about $33 million

A baseball in my hands is worth about $6
A baseball in Mark McGuire's hands is worth $19 million
It depends whose hands it's in

A tennis racket is useless in my hands
A tennis racket in Pete Sampras' hands is a Wimbledon Championship.
It depends whose hands it's in

A rod in my hands will keep away a wild animal
A rod in Moses' hands will part the mighty sea
It depends whose hands it's in

A sling shot in my hands is a kid's toy
A sling shot in David's hand is a mighty weapon.
It depends whose hands it's in

Two fish and 5 loaves of bread in my hands is a couple of fish sandwiches.
Two fish and 5 loaves of bread in Jesus' hands will feed thousands
It depends whose hands it's in

Nails in my hands might produce a birdhouse
Nails in Jesus Christ's hands will produce salvation for the entire world.
It depends whose hands it's in

As you see now it depends whose hands it's in. So put your concerns, your worries, your fears, your hopes, your dreams, your families and your relationships in God's hands because....... it depends whose hands it's in.

In Memory of You Mom



It was 8 years ago today, that you left this mortal world to join Heavnly Father. I miss you and think of you often. Melissa misses her grandma so much she is willing to get a ladybug tattoo on her ankle in memory of you. I wished you were here so I could talk to you about her. Mother's Day is coming this weekend and Melissa and I will send our annual message up to the heavens in hope that you will know that we love you.This picture is one of my favorites of you. My favorite ones of you and Melissa,
In your memory every year we look for and buy something that has an ladybug on it. This year I got this garden statue for Mother's Day
I believe you knew that you wouldn't be around when Melissa grew up so you tried to give her your grandmother's wisdom when she was young. I LOVE YOU MOM. REST IN PEACE

Just found this one..........It was for last year
