"We do not lower our standards to fit in or to make someone else feel comfortable. We are disciples of Jesus Christ, and as such we are about elevating others, lifting them to a higher, holier place where they too can reap greater blessings.
I invite each of us to seek the guidance of the Holy Ghost to know what adjustments we need to make in our lives to be more carefully aligned with our covenants. I also plead with you not to be critical of others making this same journey. 'Judgment is mine, saith the Lord.' We are each in the process of growth and change."
Sold another textbook this morning.
After scriptures and prayer James goes to work at the Howard's. He is putting up a railing on a second floor deck.
He could fall from there...
I ate breakfast, took my medicine, and watched Christmas movies until I felt like I could get up and do something.
The first thing I did was work on getting my book shipment ready.
I got a call from Sheri warning me that Max was going to ask to come up and stay with us when we come down on the 5th. The only problem is she can't come and get them and we aren't going down again until the 15th. She thinks they will get bored staying here that long. Also she is watching Shayna's dogs while Alex and Shayna, along with two other friends, go on a 3 week road trip to the Pacific Northwest.
Sure enough Max did text me and ask if he, Evan, and Joshua could come up. I told him yes. I thought for sure that I would feel better by then. Right now my nose is sore and red from blowing it so much.
I made brownies this afternoon for James. Who am I kidding, they were for me too.
I walked and watched movies. Here are some of my favorite Christmas movies that I have seen this week:
"Maggie's Christmas Miracle"
"Christmas in Angel Falls"
"Magical Christmas Ornaments"
James and I started watching the newest episode of "Mystery 101. The episode is called, "Playing Dead." This series stars Jill Wagner and Kristopher Polahaha.
Charlie loves to read
and she loves to give kisses
Bailey looks so sad.
Garcie is smiling inspite of it all.
Gracie is in James's Primary class.
I remember this night so well. I was at the church
doing a water balloon activity with the youth.
The fire was no under control and the firemen
were coming in to Vernon. Signs everywhere
thanking them for saving our town.
Such a cute little bathing beauty!
I'm not too sure about this.
Taking care of her babies
