I am grateful for...

---Samuel pooped a big one in the potty today!

--Pre-school. Although he was bonked in the head by accident, by a hula hoop, Samuel loves his pre-school. However, he comes home exhausted and ornery. We're still hoping he'll take a nap when he gets home.

--Tyler was accepted to BYU Law school. If wouldn't have been, I would have personally called them and given them a piece of my mind. But there was no reason he shouldn't have been accepted. Now we just have to wait to hear from PhD programs and then we'll decide where we will reside this fall.

--for House DVD's from the library. Tyler and finished watching Season 1 this week. My favorite show!!! That and American Idol. I look forward to watching it Mon-Wed nights.

--CPSIA law is on a stay, meaning it won't be passed for another year. That gives us one year to sell our product legally and more time to amend it. Wahoo!

--I am grateful we were able to go to the Draper Open House. What a neat experience! The kids were well behaved the whole time. I quizzed Samuel after to see if he understood the importance of the Temple. I asked him things like, "Was it loud or quiet?", "clean or dirty", "dark or light", etc and he got every answer right and didn't make any goofy remarks about bums, or pee or poop (which are his latest favorite vocab words).

--Going to Chile's in celebration of getting into law school and the kids were perfect!!! That has never happened in a restaurant before!

--Being able to do temple sealings, some from the 1500's, that I had linked to Tyler's family. A perfect Valentine's day date.



--I love the Manti Temple. We were married there and I am still a little biased to it. When we did the sealings this weekend it was perfect because the sun was shining through the windows and lighting the tall ceilings and classic architecture and details of the interior. I loved it.

--Having a wonderful family. We were able to go to my folks this weekend. I was pretty relaxed and I like letting the kids roam free. Plus my talented father took photos of my Etsy stuff and my mom watched the kids so we could go out!!! And Samuel always likes playing w/my little brother, Levi. Samuel was also able to play w/my SIL's nephew and cried when we had to leave. That's how badly he likes playing w/other boys his age. We're happy he has two new and coming male cousins now.

--I am doing well :)

  5. Hooray for things working out! So nice to have a professional photographer dad! It's always so nice to have a patch of good things happening. I'm interested to see what you two decide for school in the fall. New adventures!
