Celebrating 7 years

Seven years ago today I was giving birth to my sweet Sydney. Only she was coming into this world almost 8 weeks early. All though her body was oh so tiny, her spirit was strong, and still is to this day. (She has a lot of her mom in her!) Sydney has such a free spirit and a happy disposition. She will always be the first to give a hug to anyone that she comes in contact with. She is a great big sister to Braden. They are like two peas in a pod! Sydney has blessed our lives in so many ways. She is a outstanding student and excels in everything she does. She has recently started learning to play the piano and is doing very well. I have picked out just a few of my favorite pictures of Sydney from over the years (blogger wouldn't be able to hold all the ones I could post!). It is absolutely amazing how fast they change and grow up . Happy Birthday Sydney. You are loved by many...especially your mom and dad.

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."
