Bedtime posts

This was taken when Garrett spent the night a few nights while his parents and new baby brother were in the hospital. Katie and Garrett had a lot of fun together. Believe it or not this shot was taken in a completely dark room. Great flash huh? It took a few shots to get it centered because I couldn't tell what was on my screen. (They had just barely gotten in bed).



This was taken last night. Katelynn was tucking her stuffed animals into bed. I tried to take them and put them at the front of the bed where she would be sleeping and she said no and put them back and said "They're sleeping - shhhh!"

Television Standard Time

You know you're the parent of a toddler when you can tell what time it is by what show comes on. Sesame Street's on, it's 10 am; Barney's on, it's 12 pm ...

Great quote

"Stresses in our lives come regardless of our circumstances. We must deal with them the best we can. But we should not let them get in the way of what is most important—and what is most important almost always involves the people around us. Often we assume that they must know how much we love them. But we should never assume; we should let them know. Wrote William Shakespeare, “They do not love that do not show their love.”3 We will never regret the kind words spoken or the affection shown. Rather, our regrets will come if such things are omitted from our relationships with those who mean the most to us."

President Thomas S. Monson
