Conference

Happy Spring!! It's been great to watch the 182nd General Conference for the spring! I can't help but think of you. Through the 3 years that we went through the process of not being able to concieve I could only think of some of the reasons Heavenly Father would not want you to be in my life yet. Some of those thoughts were that I needed to gain more patience and understanding. Another was just that we may not have been ready for you yet. But today, I was listening to Elder Henry B. Eyring's talk, and he was talking about his mother enduring 10 years of her illness cancer. During her funeral, another Elder in the Twelve Apostles spoke about her, and said that we, and she, have to go through certain trials so that we can be a little bit more polished when we meet the Almighty. An overwhelming feeling of the spirit came over me, and I thought that this was one of the reasons that I had to go through this trial with Jeff, so that I could be better for it afterwards for the eternities. I hope that you can read that talk someday! It brought me a lot of peace today.
Right now you are just over 10 weeks old in my tummy. I am feeling okay today, just tired. But you are growing, and the morning sickness is good, which I know! It means that you are growing heathily! Yay! I love you!

Love, Mom

It's Official

Hello little one! I am officially pregnant with you! Which has been a long time coming...three years if you could believe that. My dad always used to say that before he and your grandma had me I was just a twinkle in his eye, and that is exactly how I feel about you! I am so excited to be having you, and feel the most blessed I have ever felt. I am nine and a half weeks yesterday. Each day that I wake up I feel a bit queasy, unless I sleep in, which doesn't happen very often. Your dad and I are just so excited and thrilled for the time to come to meet you!!! We will have so much fun :)

Love, Mom
