This week has been a hard one, and just when I thought things would never get better they started looking up. Here are some things that meant a lot to me over the week....
Kaleb sneaking into my bed at night and whispering "I wove you mommy".
Ryne was the adult when I wasn't and enlisted the younger kids to help her clean the house.
Ellie being extra affectionate, she usually doesn't lay her head on my shoulder or give lots of kisses but she spoiled me this week.
I kinda had a break down one day and was baling my eyes out and Kaleb came over with tears in his eyes gave me a hug and just sat next to me and held my hand.
Kaleb was quick to forgive me when I yelled at him and blamed him for something that he didn't do
A neighbor has been dropping off clothes for Ryne
Ryne telling me thank you for taking good care of her
A clean car and Ryne saying "WOW!! The car is clean, I want it to stay this way forever!!"(and it smells really good too!)
Kaleb telling me "Nice painting job MOM!!" or "Nice cleaning the floors mom"
My mom I have really needed a shoulder to cry on and she has been there for me even when she wasn't feeling the best herself.
Ellie brought me her shampoo and body wash grabbed my finger and led the way to the bathroom, I don't know why I just thought it was sweet.
Just knowing that others actually care.
As hard as life is at times, I wouldn't change anything all the experiences I go through are for a reason and even though they may seem impossible at the time I know I can get through them with the help of my family and my Father in Heaven. I have had a constant prayer in my heart this week and I think they were answered by all these small things that most people wouldn't really think about or see as answers or blessings, but I know I am so truly blessed and I am very thankful.
The sweetest things in life seem to come from our children. Malachi told me Love you today. I thought it was sweet.
