A sweet moment


I was just looking at this picture and I just have to write down this little moment I had with her, (so I don't forget it!)One morning I found her singing to her baby while rocking her. It was so sweet, she was being so still and quiet. I told her she was a wonderful mother! She just lit up and said, "Now that I am a mother can we read scriptures!" I just laughed, (normally that is not her favorite thing to do each morning!) I asked her, "Why is that what mothers do?" She said, "Yes rock their baby and read scriptures!"
I am so glad that right now in her 3 year old mind that is the definition of a mother! When Madey was about 4 she told me she did not want to ever be a mother! I was shocked! I asked her why and she said, "It is way too much work!" The funny thing is this totally sums up Madey and Brins- Brinley is looking at what is fun and Madey is looking at the reality of it all! I love these two girls! Thankfully I have won Madey over and She does want to be a mother someday!

A weekend of snow!








This is another fun memory I had to catch up on! We went up to Show Low for the weekend, to go to Daniel Livingston's baptism and to get some sledding in! We had a blast! We stayed at Kirk and JaNae's cabin. We wish they had been able to be there!It was wierd to be there without them! We went sledding right outside of thier backyard! Madey and Ethan loved it! Brins and Garrett weren't too sure about it! Rob was pretty disappointed at how cold the kids got! He thinks because he is from Idaho and grew up in the snow, they should never get cold!(Cute thinking!) I guess they have whimpy AZ. blood! At least they are cute like him!
