"Sometimes god calms the storm, sometimes he lets the storm rage and calms his child."

So I have been reading the scriptures like crazy the last couple of months, and I came upon one that I really loved. In D&C 101 Vs 8 it says" In their day of peace they esteemed lightly my counsel; but in the day of their trouble , of nessesity they feel after me." I love this scripture because it teachs me that we should turn to god not only in the mists of our troubles but also in our moments of peace. This is also a great one because evey one will have trials in this lifetime, big or small, that will send us to our knees. I am so grateful for these words of wisdom that we can turn to in the hard times in our lives, and I know that if we stay close to the lord through out our lives we will be prepared to stand steadfast and immoveable even through the thickest storms.

" I didn't do it."

So the other day my husband was cleaning and he slide the couch over to clean behind it. As he was cleaning he saw a big drawing in marker on the wall. So he called our three boys into the room and lined them up for intterigation. Well each boy denied the famous drawing on the wall. After about 5 minutes and no confessions Chris finally said "Okay I want to know who drew that airplane on the wall right now"! We didn't get a confession, but our oldest son said " Dad its not an airplane its a space ship!!!!" To Funny

"No Imagination"

So this Halloween I thought I would be creative with one of my kids costumes, so I took a detergent box, and cut wholes for my son to put his arms in, and then I cut off the lid and used double stick tape to stick it to his head. He was so cute, and every one seemed to love it. We took our kids to our church trunck or treat where we saw an old friend from high school there. She kept staring at my son(the detergent box) . Well about an hour after we left I got this text message from her that read, " Oh my gosh, you should have told me you didn't have a costume for him, we had an extra fire man costume you could have used." I was so annoyed, but I guess some people just don't have imaginations. lol

My Davis, My Love

"Fear not,even unto death, for in this life your joy is not full,but in me your joy is full"... On June 27,2008 Heavenly Father called my littlest one Davis home. He was truely a blessing to all who knew him but also to others who he taught the true meaning of life to, even through his short exsistence here in the mortal earth. To live each day loving one another, and not letting feellings of contention, and anger get in the way. The prophet Joseph Smith once said This world is a very wicked world; and it … grows more wicked and corrupt. … The Lord takes many away, even in infancy, that they may escape the envy of man, and the sorrows and evils of this present world; they were too pure, too lovely, to live on earth; therefore, if rightly considered, instead of mourning we have reason to rejoice as they are delivered from evil, and we shall soon have them again. … I am truely grateful for the oppurtunity to have had an angel so lovely and pure sent to me for the time he was here. I am thankful for the gospel and all that it teaches us in times of trials and tribulation. Elder Neal A. Maxwell wrote, when for the moment we ourselves are not being stretched on a particular cross,we ought to be at the foot of someone elses. I am thankful for all the many thoughts of love from all of you , and I am thankful for those who have mourned with me in my time of sorrow, comforted me when I stood in need of comfort, for you are truely standing as witness's of god, and I have Faith that I will soon hold my child again,in a worry free world when all of our loved ones will come forth through the atonment of christ in the morning of the ressurection. And I know Weeping may endure for the night, And sorrow may continue for long, But joy cometh in the morning
