How come it is so hard to just keep pressing forward through life sometimes??? I really am trying to be an example to my children that when life throws you lemons...make lemonade,but they also need to know its not easy to keep making lemonade. This crazy thing with Jose has me up most of the nights which does not make it easy for me to be happy and a nice mom or just even someone nice to be around period. But I am trying and I have decided that sometimes it's OK for our children to see that we are not just parents we are also human, we make mistakes we can learn from, life is going to throw us lemons we just have to do the best we can and keep pressing forward. It's nice to know we don't have to go through it alone and I realize now more than ever how important it is that we communicate as families and I feel blessed that I have that relationship with my hubby and children and I hope that they will build on that with their own families someday!
“When we have sampled much and have wandered far and have seen how fleeting and sometimes superficial a lot of the world is, our gratitude grows for the privilege of being part of something we can count on—home and family and the loyalty of loved ones. We come to know what it means to be bound together by duty, by respect, by belonging. We learn that nothing can fully take the place of the blessed relationship of family life.”
- President Thomas S. Monson
