Taking Life By The Horns

A couple weeks ago I ran into one of the sister missionaries that used to serve in our ward. She informed me that she only had two months left. That means that she's been out for 16 mos. 

Crazy. 

I thought to myself, "what have I done with my life the past 16 mos?"

Not much. Sadly. 

Time flies, doesn't it?

I've had some goals. But haven't accomplished any. *sigh*

But I made a new one on Sunday. It's to do family scripture study and prayer each night. 

So far so good. 

We need this. My girls need this. They are craving more gospel study and it's up to us as their parents to provide that. 

Timbers!!!!!

It's been awhile

I can't believe how long it's been. Recording my history is important so I'm going to be better about doing it. I see, someday, my grandchildren and great grandchildren reading this. I wish I had something of this type from my ancestors. It would be a treasure. So that's how I need to see blogging. Creating treasures. 

I'm currently recovering from foot surgery. I have a tarsal coalition and I had surgery to eleviate the pain. I'm in a hard cast. That is green. It's been really hard. I've fallen twice on my crutches. I can't cook or make myself something to eat. I'm disabled. And it's been way tougher than I thought. But the end result will be so amazing. I can't wait to be able to go on long walks or hikes. To run without pain. 

Last night we found out that Heidi made JV cheer for next year. I'm so proud of her. She has worked so hard. And loves it so much. I did cheer in high school. It's the first time one of our girls has "followed in my footsteps" so to speak. I was never an athlete like Emma. Nor a dancer and writer like Makenzie. But I did cheer. And I loved it and have great memories. Heidi is way better NOW than I was as a senior.
