plain and precious.

In the past month I have had a whirl wind of emotions and yet I am completley happy with my life. I lost my job. The blessing with losing my job is that I have been able to be a full time mother to my son. I love this calling in life. Nothing is more full filling for me than having the ablility to be around my son all the time. Also with me losing my job we have been able to start attending church again. How precious it is to be able to attend church and to be spiritually feed on a weekly basis. Also Matthew and I have started to read scriptures at night with Jesse. He loves this 10 to 15 minutes before bed. Doing this has brought a comforting spirit into our home. We have had to make cut backs being that my income is no longer there. Those cut backs are so worth having wait we have gained. We have simplified our lives with what we own but I think we are richer than we ever have been. Matthew and I are expecting our first child together come april! We are so excited for this addition to our little family. We are looking forward to the blessings this child will bring into our lives. Children are such a gift from our Father in Heaven and we are just thrilled at what this means for our family. Matthew is looking at attending school in vancouver. So Hopefully we will be able to move there come Febuary. However we will see how that all plays out. Both matthew and I will really looking forward to being close with his sister, Candice. We love her and her husband so much. Their family has been such a blessing in our lives. My son loves playing with his new cousins as they treat him with respect and never leave him behind. He Talks about how much fun he has with Their children and never wants to leave. I have been bleesed with amazing in-laws. All I can say is that I look forward to all the advice they will giove me over the years and I look forward to learning as much as I can from them. As some may have heard I have lost my grandfather in this past week. This has been a blow to everyone in the family. My grandfather's death was unexpected and sudden. However I know that He is in a better place. And that he lives with the lord above. My Grandfather was a upright and honest man. He was able to make friends quick and he generally cared and loved for the people he met and befriended through the years. He will be missed and remembered by many. I know if I could be half the person he was I will be in good graces with the lord.
