2008 Reflection

Looking at the last year their are a few things that will forever affect our life in dramatic ways. First little Reed was born and what a joy. We've moved to Boise, and are now in a new chapter of life, we enjoyed living close to Brent and Jan but we have already seen how a greater dependence on one another as a couple. Ross is enjoying his new job, as much as you can enjoy working everyday. The scare of my Father's tumor brought greater light to the meaning of family and the important things in life. As an individual I am striving to take good care of my family and teach my children to love and respect others, and to love the Lord. Ross continues to be a wonderful and encouraging husband and wonderful Father. Dallin makes me laugh and grit my teeth on a daily basis. Just this last week he found an empty toilet paper holder and proudly proclaimed that he was a pirate and he was searching for monsters, he surprised me by finding his underwear (which he will hopefully wear soon) and covering his head with them as he was a King and had a colorful headdress, and monsters live in the laundry room and in the heating system. Reed is growing fast and learning so many things in his first months of life, his smile is enduring and helps to brighten any snowy day.
