Lazy Sunday Afternoon

I caught Brody and Allie vegging in front of the t.v. on Sunday. In between conference they could choose a movie to watch and I guess they got really into it. Because they usually can not sit next to each other with out fighting.

When I called their names to get a picture this is what I got. Don't they look amused. If you watched conference I hope you enjoyed it. I really have come to like and appreciate President Monson, he is such a great guy and speaker. I like as he says to be grateful for today and take tomorrow when it comes. That is hard these days but it can really help, too. As my kids grow up right before my eyes I tend to focus more on the fighting and trying to make sure everything in the house is perfect, that when things are going good, I don't know what to do with myself. I am like "Oh my gosh the kids are getting along, what's wrong with them". I am going to try harder not to worry so much about the house cleaning and the focus on spending more time with my "gifts from god" because that is what they are. Every moment counts, don't waste them, they can be gone tomorrow.

Didn't you just love conference? Me too. Life is just hard sometimes and it's great to see a different perspective every so often. Kids are great. What cute pictures. It's great to grab those moments in pictures so you can remember it later when it isn't so perfect.
