Sunflower Six: A Child's View

Don't you just love when your kids are down right honest? We were getting ready for church yesterday and Morgan asked me if she could pack some diapers in the diaper bag. I said, "No, already done that." She then asks if she can refill the wipes to put in the diaper bag. I said, "I have already done that too." Her response..."Ahh, come on mom, I just want to assist the elderly!" My jaw dropped. Does she really think I am that old? If any of you have seen the movie Up, you will know that is where she got that self esteem boosting comment! I love you Morgan even if I am elderly.

Innocence of a child....

Driving along the freeway in Lehi there is a new little amusement park called Liberty Land. They have a very large imitation of Mount Rushmore with the heads of the Presidents of the U.S. Sydney's see's it and says,"Hey, there's the Godhead!"

While passing through Farmington, NM, we saw a car graveyard. The cars were all lined up in rows and rows and more rows. Morgan says, "Hey, are those cars stuck in rush hour traffic?"

While reading how the Nephites and Laminites are always fighting, Sydney says, "How do you fought?"

Thought provoking thoughts...

A.S.A.P

Always Say A Prayer.

Don't count the days,

Make the days count.

Life is not measured by the breathes we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

Prayer changes things.

“Don't spend your life with someone you can live with, spend it with someone you can't live without"

"If I had my child to raise all over again, I'd build self esteem first, and the house later. I'd finger paint more, and point the finger less. I would do less correcting and more connecting. I'd take my eyes off the watch, and watch with my eyes. I'd take more hikes, and fly more kites. I would stop playing serious, and seriously play. I would run through more fields and gaze at more stars. I'd do more hugging and less tugging."
