Take one step at a time and find joy in the time you have to nourish your spirit, so that you will be prepared to receive them at the end of the day. Time does fly, but there is joy to be had and time to rebuild yourself, your marriage and stregthen your relationship with the Lord. Our marriages take a beaten when we're raising kids. Be good to yourself and be proud of what you have accomplished so far. There is so much fun in every stage of their lives savor every minute and the tears of sadness will turn to tears of joy for what these two little ones are becoming. They are precious and I love them dearly!! Feel my love and arms around you,hug-hug! <BR/><BR/>Love, your Tia<BR/><BR/>p.s.There's nothing scarier than letting them drive by themselves for the first time!

I love that hymn, it has given me comfort many times. I too have had to try and wrap my mind around the fact I'm in a new stage of life. I always figured I'd have a large family but because of my medical issues Jess is our last. Within the last few weeks, since praying about it in the temple, Heavenly Father has given me peace over it and all I have ahead of me.Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09972007836509218073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-108474873034892333.post-62820946366729369682008-09-04T07:24:00.000-07:002008-09-04T07:24:00.000-07:00I shouldn't have read this, made me cry.
