What Work makes you Grateful For-


I got a call today from the home care supervisor. She said "I just got payroll and did you know that you had 18 hours of overtime?" That's right- Two weeks ago I worked 62 hours between both of my jobs! I can tell you that I am worn out, and I will probably have 50 hours from last week. But, working has definately made me much more grateful for my totally, totally awesome husband and the 3 greatest kids ever. I am learning how much fun they are, and how it is most important to have quality time with them. I have come to know that even though they only see me for about 30 minutes in the morning and 2-3 hours at night- they still know who I am and still love me no matter what. And I Love them too! It's great to really enjoy spending time together! I so totally envy and miss being a stay at home mom, but hopefull that opportunity will come my way again- really soon!
We did find time last Monday night to go to the Bishop's home to help plant his enormous garden- that he will share! The pictue is of Kyler on his tractor, with only half of the garden behind him.

You're such a good mom. You make me tired just reading about all that you fit into a day! Keep up the good "work"... but get a couple hours of sleep too!
