I'm so grateful for an awesome husband who always has a great perspective and who lifts me and makes me laugh. i think the key to a good marriage is falling in love over and over. I smile on a daily basis of the cute things he does to our house, and the things he says and how he takes care of our dog. i'm so grateful for the gospel and have embedded a quote in my head that i try to remember EVERY day -
"if you only had the things you thanked your Heavenly Father for the night before, what would you have today?"

We can't be friends anymore. Anyone who wishes for twins is certifiably crazy in my book. Take it back.
