I am... very thankful so thankful that I married for love.
I think...the winter won't be so bad if I can learn to snowboard.
I know... that it is all about your attitude in life.
I want... to always feel those butterflies in my stomach when I hear Preston's truck pull up outside.
I have...four amazing boys that always love me even when I am not the best mother
I wish ... that we could have more kids
I hate...that I got my tubes tied, and didn't go with something less permanent
I miss...the toddler years...yes for real
I fear...losing my best friend, but I know that he is mine forever no matter what
I feel...sad when I am impatient with my kids
I hear...myself being mean sometimes, and I am working on that
I smell...the yummy smell of my laundry....whoops I should be smelling dinner...guess I should get on that...cooking dinner thing...:)
I wonder...what trials my kids will face, and how to best prepare them for withstanding temptation
I regret...not having more children...even though it really sucks being prego, and I am the meanest woman alive when I am prego...okay sometimes even when I am not prego! :)
I love...Pres and the boys and our military life with all my heart. I love the gospel, I don't know what I would do without it.
I am not ...a patient person, but I am working on that
I believe... that the only way to make it through a deployment is with Heavenly Father's guidance, and support, and love..and the angels he surrounds us with (aka my ward family!)
I don't always...remember how blessed I am...and on those days I want to kick myself!
I win...at no arguments when Preston flashes those baby blues at me and puts on that grin :)
I lose...when I get upset at the kids, when I am really upset with something else going on.
I never...have learned to be a good listener...which is such an important quality
I listen...not enough...to my kids
I am scared of...missing an opportunity to help someone or be there for someone when they need me, because I have so much going on I have a hard time focusing. IF YOU NEED ME PLEASE BE BLUNT AND TELL ME. :)
I read...the scriptures with Pres and the boys every night, and it makes all the difference in the world in our little family.
I am happy about...being sealed to Pres and the boys and knowing we will be together forever...even if something cuts our time short together in this world. That is the only way to get through a deployment is to focus on that fact.

that's a really good one. it makes you think . . . about important things which we don't always take the time to do . . .
I seriously thought that what you just wrote was so open and honest, it was beautiful.
I cried at your last one...of course I have been weepy all day and trying to hide the fact from mack and the kids...that I dread the idea of Mack being gone again on Friday...and that once again....I have no control over what happens. Of course I am being a baby...he will be back in a couple of months and I don't face this every year or so...... thank you to you and all the other women that do this for real!!!! I miss you a ton!
