The years tell us much that the days never knew

February 3, 2018 by Finding your joy in the journey

The years tell us much that the days never knew

It's hard to believe that time flies by as fast as it does. People always told me "Don't blink. It will be over before you know it." That statement has always overwhelmed me. Being a mom is by the far the most rewarding and difficult thing I have ever done. Sometimes it feels like the day will never be over and other times it feels like it's all just flying by. I heard a quote once that has stuck … [Read more...]

Why Baby #5?

October 12, 2017 by Finding your joy in the journey

Why Baby #5?

When we were pregnant with our little man, baby #5, I would get lots of weird looks when we would go places with our big family.... which ironically to me doesn't feel big at all, and lots of fun (and I use that word rhetorically) comments like "You know what causes that right?" (my fabulous husband responded to one of those comments with his own, "Yes and obviously we are good at it."), "You have … [Read more...]

The day I failed my daughter

August 23, 2016 by Finding your joy in the journey

The day I failed my daughter

My daughter is my best friend, she is my 4-year-old shadow and my mini mime. She does everything I do and says everything that I say. She knows big words like exceptional and what they mean because she hears me say those kinds of words often. When she was a bit smaller I would catch her out of the corner of my eye watching my every move and copying my actions with the utmost precision, it was the … [Read more...]

Mothering Words of Wisdom

February 24, 2015 by Finding your joy in the journey

Mothering Words of Wisdom

I found a collection of words of wisdom for us moms. I thought I would share them with you. We all need strength and guidance and when we work together to encourage each other we are a powerful force. Motherhood is a hard job and most of the time a very thankless one, but it is the most important work we can do in this life. I love reading quotes about parenting and love finding new inspiring … [Read more...]

Peace

Peace

A few weeks ago, shortly after we put the kids to bed I hear Aowyn coughing but to me it sounded more like a throw up cough then just a cough. Noah went upstairs to check on her and right before he opened the door I heard her soft sweet tiny voice cry out, "Dada!" It broke my heart. He opened the door and she was standing there with throw up all over her face and in her hair. He took her into the … [Read more...]

    Words to live by

    “Give your child a compliment and a hug; say, ‘I love you’ more; always express your thanks. Never let a problem to be solved become more important than a person to be loved. Friends move away, children grow up, loved ones pass on. It’s so easy to take others for granted, until that day when they’re gone from our lives and we are left with feelings of ‘what if’ and ‘if only.’ … “Let us relish life as we live it, find joy in the journey and share our love with friends and family. One day, each of us will run out of tomorrows. Let us not put off what is most important.” - President Thomas S. Monson
