Jordan's first experience with makeup

 

Getting ready for Auntie Rena's wedding - a little bit of lip gloss and blush. Wish my skin was as soft and beautiful.

Who's going to marry me?

 

Ever since Jordan found out Auntie Rena was getting married she would ask "who's going to marry me?" about herself. It was very endearing. She then decided that she would marry Jacob, her baby brother because she loved him. Whoever it will be I would count very blessed.

To all mothers -

I hope you feel what we have is a privilege.

I found this on my friends blog and found it really inspiring. I love how she
Despite how much pain she has been in and all she still says things like this -
*I prayed to my Lord and thanked him for my life. I am so happy.* *But I also remind myself that I am a perfect spirit enduring this imperfect world.
No matter how abnormal I am on this earth, my spirit knows no boundaries of any type.*
She really has the right perspective on life. Despite how hard life has been since the accident she feels blessed to be here and I love feeling the love Steph and Christain have for each other - it sounds out of this world, but it's very real. Their increased faith in Heavenly Father and his Son Jesus Christ since their trials are an amazing inspiration. He heals our souls if we allow him to.

Life seems so easy sometimes and not so easy at others - this was a reminder of how we all go through different trials. Ours is quite small today - we have been invaded with the stomach bug - it has invaded our home but it will leave soon - here's hoping. Small trial in the big scheme of things. But I really hope it passes. I love being a mother and never imagined it could be so wonderful - with so many different emotions.

Professor Robert Whitfield said
We are not born with love. We have to be given it. Every child needs one person who is irrationally committed to their welfare. We are no one without a committed someone.
I hope that every moment of your time on this earth is treasured.
