September 16, 2017 - From Mom

Boy I miss you today. Some days are better than others and today is just a tough one. I'm sure you can relate:)

I just want you to know that I love you so very much! As a young mom raising kids, you guys were always my focus and it could feel all consuming at times. As I remember it now, with some time and perspective, I loved every second if it. If you could go back to those years in the middle of it, I would tell you that so many days are tough and exhausting. But even then I loved it! I'm so grateful that I was able to stay home and raise you guys. You three are my greatest treasures. To see you turn out to be such an extraordinary young man brings my heart pure joy! All the struggle was worth it. I love you so much my son. I just wanted you to know that I'm thinking of you and missing you especially today.

I'm praying for extra comfort, faith and happiness for you today! You are wonderful!!❤️❤️❤️

Love

Mom

Good morning my sweet boy! How was your week? I’m hoping there were some baptisms and the people followed through on their commitments:) Did you love conference? One of my favorite things about it was how I knew we were sitting there doing the exact same thing at the same time! That was comforting to me. I absolutely loved it! If you didn’t get a chance to watch the women’s broadcast you should try. I will send you an Ensign conference edition when it gets here so you can read all the talks again and study them. I feel like I received many personal messages from the talks. So many of them focused on our ability to stay faithful and receive comfort during trials... not one minute of our suffering is wasted. It is all for our good and our growth. That was one of the messages that I took away and feel strengthened by. I also felt a recommitment to strengthening my conversion. That also seemed to be a theme of conference. Are we living the gospel by going through the motions and check...

Hey buddy! I’m glad I finally get a chance to sit down and write. Baby stuff has taken over my life but we are very excited to have Harper with us in the next few weeks. Excited for you to meet your new little cousin when you return. Sounds like you are doing really well! I know you’ve had minor struggles and home sickness along the way, but it’s good to see you pumped and positive. Sounds like you’re doing a great job! Hey listen, I know everyone has chimed in on the girl situation and you’re probably tired of talking about it at this point, but I wanted to try to talk to you about it as well because I’ve had the unwelcome pleasure of going through 3 life changing heart breaks that I never thought I’d recover from so I can speak to you from experience and hopefully put some perspective on things. I had been with Alicia for 5 years, we were in love but it was more than that. It was how the family loved her, how much I loved her family and ...
