Love anchors us

New beginning...

Continuing on with a fresh start...?

After some talking Aaron and I decided that we would start a new blog.

I was feeling completely overwhelmed by how much I had slacked off on my blogging / journaling my family and our journey.

life had gotten so crazy and every time I sat down to catch up, I felt defeated. 

So, I would turn it off.

 I didn't know where to start, I didn't want to leave anything out. 

Knowing I could never catch up but wanting to tell our story.

We decided I need a fresh start.

I wanted a new blog name that would fit our story.

Then yesterday I came across a quote that hit me. 

With a slight change it was us.

"LOVE ANCHORS US"

It couldn't fit us better.

 I am so anxious to start journaling again. 

We have so many stories and experiences I don't want forgotten.

Like...

A couple of weeks ago, Cloe had missed church and was so sad because she finally got to give the talk in sharing time and missed it.

So after some loves, I asked her to prepare a talk that she could share with the family after dinner.

She was so excited. 

She got right to it and even planned an entire sharing time complete with songs, prayer and a spot light.

Her talk was so cute.

But what stole the show was her spot light.

She has memorized the spot light saying our ward does.

 and the light landed on Aaron.

this is how it went down.

Cloe: what is your favorite article of faith?

Dad: the first one.

Cloe: Of coarse it is, its the easiest one. I don't blame ya!

{giggles}

Cloe: What is your favorite thing to do? Probably watching the back of your eye lids!?

Dad: (laughing) well yeah! I was gonna say sleeping.

We died laughing

This Little girl completes our family.

She has the heart yet stubbornness of all of us together.

I love my family and our life.

Is it hard sometimes? yes

 Sometimes I might even want to hide in a closet and cry?

but...

Most of the time I just want to be with them every second.

To my family XOXO
