Birth Affirmations

I finally got around to printing, decorating and posting birth affirmations around my home, due in large part to the encouragement of my sweet husband.

These help me prepare for and visualize the birth that I want to have. It worked with my last birth, so here we go again! Wahoo!!

And here is my sweet daughter assisting me:

We have about a month left to wait, give or take, and the nesting bug has hit. I am doing my best to clean out and organize and prepare everything for our precious new arrival.

Blessed

As I was thinking about life, specifically MY life, and I realized how blessed I am. I have all the things that are most important to me: 1- a very good husband, 2- children, 3- the option to stay home with my children. There are things I would change(have more children), things I'm unhappy about(too much debt, not enough children). However, today the Lord helped me remember that those three are the things that I want in highest priority. I don't always act like these are my priorities, but I trust Heavenly Father and Jesus to mold me into a better person and help me to keep these priorities in the front of my mind. They love me and want me to be happy. I am very blessed.

Fortune Cookie

We went to the Chinese Gourmet in Murray for dinner tonight. When we were finishing up, our waitress brought us fortune cookies. Levi picked one, opened it as instructed and pulled out this fortune:

Hahaha! Amen!!
