birthday

Dean's 6th birthday was on Monday the 22nd, and we had his party Friday the 26th @ Dairy Queen. It was really fun and he had a great time. I really enjoy having his birthday parties there because

1) Someone else does the cooking and cleaning, and preparing,
2) I can actually ENJOY the party and the guests without having to run around like a chicken with my head cut off

so anyway fun was had by all

So, I am now officially a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and I must say already my life has been compleatly transformed. Not only is my relationship with Heavenly Father better, but so is my relationship with my husband, my kids, my family and even here at work is just so much better. At my baptism, I was asked to give my testimony if I wanted to. I thought I would be so nervous, but, I wasn't. It felt like I had this surge of energy all through my body. All that day I felt compleatly at peace and clean. I have been able to tackle obsticles head on instead of worrying about them until it drives me bonkers. All I can say is that, I feel so much better about everything.
I've been thinking a lot about my dad during these past few weeks, and the work that needs to be done for him here. I cannot wait for that to begin. I feel so much more at peace about him passing. Before I thought I had lost him forever and that when I pass away I would know him but not KNOW KNOW him. I have learned now that is compleatly false.
Dean has been doing great this past few months and Lily and Dean have been starting to ask to go to church. Let me say that is a wonderful feeling. Lily has decided that she is supposed to run around like crazy during Sacrement Meeting. So, I end up having to take her out. Then, she decides to be good out in the lobby area. So, I try to take her back in, and the whole cycle starts over again. I even have snacks, coloring books, a babydoll, anything I can think of that would keep her occupied. So, I am open to suggestions if anyone has any....I am sure I'm not the first one for this to happen to.
