So Innocent..

A few Sundays ago, during the Sacrament hymn I looked down at Amyrlin. She had her head down and her hands clasped tight. I think she could feel me watching her because she just then looked up at me. I asked her if she was ok. She said she was fine. I then asked her what she was doing. She then replied in the sweetest little innocent voice in the whole world, "Mom, I'm praying for Jesus, because He died for us." My heart swelled with joy and I couldn't help but be grateful for the sweet little spirit that she is and the love, peace, and happiness she brings to my life. Amyrlin, you are the sweetest little girl in the world and I love you!!!

Another cute thing that Amyrlin did. :) : About a month or two ago we were playing in the girls room. Out of the blue my oldest says oh my, and then proceeds to take the Lords name in vain. My heart broke...I pulled her aside and explained to her that Heavenly Father doesn't like it when we use His name like that and that it makes him sad. I told her that we should say other things like oh my gosh, oh my goodness, or holy buckets. A few days later I hear Amyrlin say oh my gossshhhh. She then comes up to me and says, "Mom, its really hard to say gosh. But ya know what? I'm going to do it because it makes Heavenly Father happy." Bless her little angelic heart. :)

 

This is my GORGEOUS sister-in-law!! She asked me to take some pics of her for her senior pics. It was easy because she is so beautiful!!! She is graduating this year from Malad High School. GO Dragons!!! I love Malad. Its so peaceful and relaxing there. We hope someday to move back there or move somewhere like it. I love Tonya to death! She's amazing! I can only hope one day to be more like her!! Love ya girl!!

I have the cutest nephew ever!! He lights up the whole room whenever I see his cute little smile. My brother that is about 2 years younger than me just adopted him!! They named him Lucas Alexander. I can't wait for him to get older and start talking and playing with my girls. They love him so so much! They need a little brother... (trying to get Jesse to cooperate with that idea with not a ton of luck but we'll get there) :) Anyways, my sister-in-law, Mallory, let me take a few pics of him and these are a few of my favorites. :) Love you Alex and Mallory and baby Lucas!!!

I love my two little girls so much!! They play so well with each other. i saw this saying and thought it
was perfect for my girls. They love each other but get on each others nerves. LOL! Sisterly love. :)

Amyrlin is such a wonderful little girl. She is tender, loving, compassionate, and wants to be friends with everyone. She is my solid rock. She has so much to offer for a 4 year old. Amyrlin is very smart. The other day we were learning our colors and what you get when you mix the colors together. I asked her what color red and yellow make. She looked up at me and I could see the gears turning in her head as she answered orange. I had never taught her that so I asked her how she knew the answer. She simply replied that no one had told her and that she was sitting in her bed one night and thought it up herself!! I'm in BIG trouble! I love her so much and I can't wait to see what road in life she takes. Hopefully its the "High Road". :)

Easter - 2010

I am so very blessed! I have the sweetest, most beautiful girls in the whole world! I am so glad that they are the best friends that they are. :) I was hoping it wasn't going to snow that day and it didn't. Thank goodness. The pics turned out fairly good, I think. :)
