Feeling Overwhelmed With Love

Hello there! Did you forget who we were?? I don't blame you. We've been M.I.A. for a while in the blogging world. I never feel like I have time to sit at the computer and do an entire blog. Not to mention, I can never remember to bring the memory card upstairs to download new pics and video. But I do have a lot of pics and cute video to share... But the camera is in the car... Which Cory has.... at the church.... So that will have to wait for another time!

In the meantime, I just wanted to proclaim to the world that I am happier and more content than I ever felt was possible. Today the spirit is so close to me that I am seeing my life with what feels like new eyes. I LOVE MY LIFE! I love all of the challenges and the choices I made in order to get to this moment. Cory is the greatest husband I never knew I'd be lucky enough to have. He supports me, makes me laugh, is great with Treyson, and has so much potential inside himself. I don't think he realizes how great he is going to be. I can see it! And I don't think he realizes how great he already is. I am amazed by him!

And let's not forget our little Treyson-boy, who is the funniest, sweetest and cutest little thing! I love him so much I make myself sick! He's learning new things and growing everyday! He talks ALL DAY LONG! And I love it! His new words: Wow, Yay (while clapping hands), This ("Dith"), singing Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes (but just likes the knees and toes part). In fact, he woke up singing, "Knees, toes," this morning. He loves to turn into a puppy and yap all around the house. He brings me different bowls and scoops to get him "food" that he can gobble up. He knows most of his body parts: eyes, nose, tongue, ears, hair, toes, knees, hands. And he LOVES babies! Absolutely adores them.

As for me... It may be the fact that I got a fabulous hair cut and dyed it a wonderful black, or that I'm wearing a dress that makes me feel skinny, but I am so happy today! I know that I am worth something. Despite the fact that I struggle so bad with daily prayers and scripture study, I know that I am a daughter of God who will be someone one day. My visiting teachers came over last week and we talked about a video the Y.W. pres had done. They asked the girls how they can change the world. It has really made me think: what am I doing each day to change the world? It only takes one person to make a difference, so why not me? I need to be more focussed throughout the day and really STRIVE to be a better person. Who know how I'll feel tomorrow, but at least for today, I feel empowered and beautiful!

I hope you all enjoy this blessed and glorious Sabbath Day! We are lucky to be here and live in this country. I love you all!
