Life can get crazy but I love the quite moments that I can sit and just think about everything. I want to take just a moment to share my thoughts about my second mama Jodi. It has almost been a year ago that she had her fall. And now she had her last surgery on her head. Boom and I went to go see her and I was overwhelmed by her spirit. She has gone though more than anyone I know and she stays strong. Sitting in her hospital room just chatting with her it hit me. Our heavenly Father wants what is best for all of us and sometimes that requires us to go through pain but he never leaves us. If anyone ever needs help wit their testimony all you would have to do is talk to her. She has such a tender side that would touch even the toughest soul. I am very grateful that I get to be her friend. She will be able to come home in about five weeks ( give or take) and as of now she is doing better than the doctors had thought!!!!
One of our friends, her son has a some sort of like birthmark on his brain. So when we were at the UofU hospital we ran to Primarys to go visit them. David works with Tavims aunt. (Tavim is the little boy who is sick) I have only met her once. But the moment I walked into the hospital room I felt just like family!! It was so fun being able to talk and make new friends. Looking at that baby in the crib with the IV in his arm I felt so blessed to have a healthy baby. It was hard for me to learn that Tavim had something wrong with him. All I can say is that I am grateful that my life is calm compared to others. Even though I feel like my life can be a little crazy at times all I have to do is think of others and what they are going through.

Hooray! A post! I think it's so great that you have stayed so close to Jodi. She needs you as much as you need her. Things like this will always stay with you- but writing them will help you remember how grateful you feel for health and strength. You are right though- sometimes trials are blessings in disguise
I cant see right now due to some "eye" problems and I have NO idea what this "blog" thing is all about, however, the one thing I know for sure is that Julie is amazing! She is my strength and her and David made me a Grandma!!! I must say that it is (or Avery is) my light when it is dark and by far the most precious, amazing gift anyone could ever have. It has been such a blessing to have raised Julie and watch her turn into a wife and mother. I love to reflect on how bossy and sassy she was when she was little and I love to remember her and Kaylin being so silly as they somehow turned into these amazing creatures. When I feel discouraged, I just pretend that I had something to do with this beautiful family. I love you Julie and thank you SO much for giving me Boomer as a son-in-law and especially making me a Grandmother to the BEST, MOST BEAUTIFUL, SMART and TALENTED Granddaughter in the entire universe!!!
