We've finally arrived!!

Ok, so I don't have any idea what I'm doing, but my friend Kristen told me I absolutely HAD to start a blog for all of my family and friends who are far away. So here I go. We had a health scare recently that made me realize just how much I have been blessed and how much I have to lose. It has me wondering what I would do if I lost someone that I love right now. Have I told everyone how much I love them and am grateful for them in my life? I am trying to do that now on a daily basis. To be softer and gentler with the kids, to not yell as much or worry about little things that dont really matter. It's definitely easier said than done. But I have to try. Gordon B Hinckley said "In all of life have love and laughter. Life is to be enjoyed, not just endured." I'm going to try to start enjoying life a little more. And I'll start by letting you all know just how much you are loved. I am incredibly blessed.

The only thing that I didn't tell you about blogging is that it can be addicting. I thought I would wait until you started one to inform you but you will get hooked!! I love you!
