My Homework :)

Aaron had a big project due today in Geometry. First of all why is my 8th grader in Geometry??? Second of all I can't help them with homework anymore once they get to this level. I have blocked it all out, or forgot or maybe never learned it....but either way sadly I say I am no help with math homework anymore. So he had to make a project with household items that was a specific volume, but I still don't really understand but in terms that I could understand it was about a gallon of liquid. So Jimmy and Aaron spend a good 2 hours calculating and recalculating all the different things to come up with the right size containers to be the correct amount and then we had to make the household items into something....after many bad ideas Jason said....make a dog. WHAT A GOOD IDEA!!! I may not be good at math but I can do this!!!!!!!

10 Days

It's 10 days until Ashlie get married! It's a crazy time for her, for me, for Shawn, for my children who think I have COMPLETLY lost my mind. But in all the craziness I felt it important to share with all of you the joy and I feel deep down inside (underneath all the tulle and lights :)), my daughter has made good choices and will be recieving her endowments this friday night and will become a temple recommend holding member of the church and I am indeed grateful that her journey in life has made this most significant stop at the temple. The following Friday she will be sealed in the temple to Shawn. Being in the young women program for so long, teaching and praying and hoping for this day for all the young women is something that has become a regular part of my life and my daughter being worthy and ready to enter the temple for her endowments and temple marriage is something I have a hard time putting into words. The first time you see your child in the temple is an amazing feeling one I hope to have 3 more times after this Friday. I love my family very much, we are a crazy bunch but we love each other and that is what really matters. These moments we will spend in the temple in the next week is the stuff that really matters, and I'm really proud of my sweet sweet baby girl.
