Primary Temple Trip

I love the Temple, especially the Portland Temple! The glory, the meaning, the beauty, the spirituality… all of it in these sacred temple grounds. The primary hosted an activity to do a little walk around with some pictures. I love that the girls recognize it and enjoy going there. They talk about being married there. Oh, that they may reach their goal! I love that we are a forever family – Kelley, Joo Lin, Seoul, Sydney, Sierra, and future baby Rice!

Happy Mother’s Day!

What a lucky lady I am. A husband that loves me and beautiful, healthy children… plus a very cool mom that lives nearby. I had a lovely time with my family spending time together and going to church. Then we went to my mom’s house to have dessert and go for a walk.

Thoughts about blogging

Well, I am almost a full year behind on the blog. That begs the question: go back and try and catch up OR just start again right here, right now. I’ve mentioned before that the OCD side of me always needs things to be in order. In some ways I feel like I’m failing for not keeping up with it. In others, I remember I DO have four children that take up {a lot} of my time. I fail at documenting all the cute and wonderful and successful milestones Sierra and James have achieved. Oh wait, James hasn’t even made an appearance on the blog! Now that is a total fail. Blogging doesn’t seem to be the “it” thing anymore I’ve noticed, but I do think family (a few?) do look at it. So, not to keep up with the blogging Jones’s but to make peace with my OCD side I am going to nobly try yet again to be a blogger… at least be blogging the correct pictures for the year it is. Oy! Wish me luck. Comments may keep me going… or not. Such noble endeavors for this {rather} burnt out mama. Let’s get to it! {As James decides it’s cry time instead of nap time…}

{I do love that girls enjoy sitting and scrolling through the pictures of when they are babies… since that is yet another fail: baby books of any sort.}
