"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?"

Thanksgiving

We had a great Thanksgiving. The two weeks that led up to Thanksgiving, however, were not so great. We got the flu. The real, nasty, sick as can be flu. It also snowed while we were sick, the kids didn't get to go out to play in it... I guess it'll have to snow again soon!
