You go through life and there are signs everywhere.
Some signs make you pause in the middle of your carefree moment and conjure up a fatalistic plan of action should the unthinkable occur....
Other signs are fun and fill you with a sort of longing for adventure...
Other signs give you a little twang of anticipation....
Still other signs are complicated and require reading the fine print...
And other signs are just plain confusing...
but when you get up close, you realize that the stars are cracked, dirty, in a raunchy part of town, and really not all that impressive...
And sometimes you realize that the best signs of all are homemade and scratched onto a scrap of paper you scrounged up in your purse....

What a clever way to share the good news. You are so creative. I love reading the things you write, and watching you raise such a wonderful family.
ReplyDeleteI have been reading your blog for a few weeks now, and I wanted to tell you that I really appreciate it. I am 16 years old, I have AML, and also by coincidence my family are LDS too! You are very uplifting, and it is something I looked forward to. :)

You have a great looking family!
