I know that my posts are sometimes so random. I watched this video this morning and it reaffirmed how grateful I am to be a mother. I am so grateful that Heavenly Father trusts women in this sacred work. I am grateful for Spencer and the role he plays in our family. He has been such a blessing to us and his younger sisters, filling our home with stories, laughter, and example. He leaves in two weeks for college. If I stop blogging at this time, please call me and see if I am all right :) I am grateful to Maddie for her independence and ability to do just about anything. I am grateful for the peaceful way that she lives her life and the faith with which she faces challenges. I am grateful for Ali for the way she loves home and quality time. I am grateful for her passion and flair. I am grateful that of the 3 days the kids have been gone, she has called me every day to check in and share their fun with me. This move has been the hardest for her, and I am grateful that she is trying. I am grateful for Sydney and the way she is with me all of the time. She is my partner in raising Kate and takes her role very seriously. I am grateful that she is service minded and has a sense of humor. I am grateful for Kate who has refocused me at a time full of uncertainty and change. She has given me a warm little body to hold, rock, and kiss and has been the instrument to teach my other kids more about love.
