Facebook

I check facebook regularly, more often than I should... really.  I think about posting things but never actually do, I'm not sure why, maybe its too public.  So I thought I'd keep track up my pretend status updates, the things I think about posting but don't...


Thursday
4.  I'm having issues, I finally took the crib down today, after a month of it sitting empty since my baby decided he didn't want to sleep there any more.  It was bittersweet moment.

Wednesday
3.  I saw my first, live and in the wild Bald Eagle today.  Pretty cool.

Tuesday
2. We have a little boy at our house who often has tantrums about watching Go, Diego, Go.  Lengthy tantrums   But last night when Gavin woke up crying in the middle of the night about its being his turn to "Watch, Diego!" - it was a little over the top. Its getting a little too excessive and drastic measure will need to be taken.

Monday
1.  My van is broken and in the shop, my dishwasher is broken and we are waiting for a part, my doorbell is broken and I'm waiting for by husband to care, my vacuum is broken and I'm tried of taking it to the repair shop and having them tell me nothing is wrong.  My motivation is broken and I'm waiting for it to fix itself.

Elder Perry


Today I shook his hand,

An apostle of the Lord.

He told my daughter

"Your eyes are beautiful"

Her eyes are just like mine.

At ninety-one years of age,

He spoke of technology and education,

He wished the kids the roughest,

And toughest school year yet,

Because it would make them

Stronger and smarter, than ever before.

But, the best part of conference

Was after we stood in line.

And I stood in his mists

And felt his hand on mine

Thirty-five years I waited

But my children will wait no more


For they have met an apostle of the Lord
