"A house does not have to be perfect to be a home of joy, a child does not have to behave perfectly to love and be loved, and every moment of life does not have to be perfect to be of value. Too often, I realize, we fail to see the glorious reality of the simple joy that abounds in the seemingly mundane routine of day-to-day living. Instead, we tend to idolize the past, idealize the future, and devalue the present.... What better way to show our appreciation to Heavenly Father for what we have than to embrace our lives, albeit 'ordinary' and 'unexciting,' with joy?"

We're gonna party like its 2009!

Chloe wanted to go to a "party" on New Year's Eve, so that is exactly what we did! Well, we went to Celebration Lane over by Bellevue Square and partied... at 7pm! We danced and cheered and rang in the new year at a resonable hour-- then went home, put Cooper to bed and had some ice cream! Woohoo
