A Promise to My Children
As long as I live, I am your Parent first and your Friend second. I will stalk you, flip out on you, lecture you, drive you insane, be your worst nightmare and hunt you down like a bloodhound when needed because I LOVE YOU! When you understand that I will know you are a responsible adult. You will NEVER find someone who loves, prays, cares and worries about you more than I do. If you don't hate me once in your life, I am not doing my job properly.
Love,
Mom

Hannah's 4H Project
Some may know and some may not that Hannah has joined a 4H Dog club this summer and she will be showing Kiera at the fair tomorrow.
Kiera joined our family back in early June for the summer. Our good friends, the Benson's, have let us "borrow" one of their Bichon Frise (pronounced Bishon) dogs for the summer so Hannah could participate in this adventure.
I know....I am like most of you......who would have EVER thought Dave would allow a dog inside our home. I guess it's amazing what three pairs of little eyes from three little girls can do to soften a Dad's heart.
Kiera has been a great "trial" dog for our family. She is three years old, doesn't shed, already potty trained, kennel trained and leash trained. Yes...we're spoiled.
Kiera is in love with Hannah and Hannah is in love with Kiera. Ashley and Nicole adore her and do get upset at times that she always follows Hannah around. However, we make sure and take turns at night as to whose bed she gets to start out in before put in her kennel for the entire night.
We went to our ward swim party Tuesday night and were gone for a few hours. Upon returning home the girls were on the floor hugging Kiera and she was kissing them. Man....you would have thought we had been gone for days the way this reunion was going.
We wish Hannah good luck tomorrow in showing Kiera. Here is a picture of the two of them that is hooked to her score card.

Good Moms
My mom sent me this saying today and it made me take a sigh and say to myself that I am normal.
This came at the appropriate time when I'm struggling and stressing to stay above water with work, laundry, household chores, church responsibilities and life in general.
Maybe it well help you as much as it helped me.
