Temples

















The kids wanted to see where mom and dad got married.  I have wanted to do a photo shoot of the temple anyway to hang in my living room.  Kynzee called it Heavenly Father's Castle.  So when we drove past the bountiful temple and the Brigham City temple this last weekend, she yelled out, "there is father's castle."  I love that she thinks that.  I want to take them to all the temples around our house.  We are surrounded and we feel very blessed.
Life is still good for us.  Being in our own house has  been amazing.  If life were perfect, I would be able to stay home and be a mom and raise my beautiful children..instead of someone else's.  I struggle with that more then anything right now.  I get an hour or so  with my kids every night by the time I get home from work.  It is SOOOO not worth it to me.  However, the insurance saves us.  I am working for insurance only and daycare.  I see only $20 a paycheck.  The rest is insurance and given right back to the place I work for kynzee and brynlee's daycare.  The insurance has been an amazing blessing and has saved us over $1500 a month.  You just can't help but be grateful when it was $1500 a month for all of Ben's diabetes medication, supplies and now his diabetes supplies (strips) are free and insulin is $50.  We are hoping  Ben will get a change in his insurance at Maverik this month.  This will allow me to go part time and be a mom, which is what I want most in the world right now.  I am very grateful for the little things.  I am grateful that my kids are kept safe when they get home from school and have to be by themselves.  I am so grateful for Aiden and his caring, loving personality.  He takes such good care of his sisters and is constantly concerned for them.  I am very blessed to have such amazing kids that are very forgiving (most the time) of my horrible schedule.  They are my life!!!!
