We may not have it all together, but together we have it all

 

I am so very happy that I was able to spend Christmas with these four amazing kiddos of mine. I didn't think it was going to work out to have them here, but after some phone calls and making arrangements it worked out.

Kyli flew in from Texas last week and was able to spend a week with us. We are leaving soon to take her to Vegas to the airport. It was so nice having her here and I know Ana was attached at he hip to Ky while she was here. Ana loves her sissy and what an amazing example and role model Ana has in her sister. My beautiful girls. I know that I probably wont see Kyli until May when she graduates. I am so very proud of her.

Kelly was able to catch a ride with Tamry and Jared. I was so thankful that they picked him up and brought him here. It was so good to see him and spend a couple of days with him. He had to get back right away to

Well this is the view in my living room on December 25, 2014. I can say that I feel truly blessed this Christmas. It has been a very trying year for me and although I have been blessed beyond belief, I have struggled this year.
Sometimes you have to be completely broken down and shaken up so that you can be put back together again. The idea behind that is that you come back stronger. Mentally, Physically and Spiritually my world came crashing down earlier this year. Challenges that I thought were life ending, were actually Life Changing. It has taken me several months to make some adjustments and recognize that my trials and challenges were put into place for a reason, but it has definitely caused me to dig deep down and recognize all that has been given to me.
I was so thankful that I had all of my children gathered around this little Charlie Brown Tree in my new home to celebrate this special day that we have been blessed with. This special day to recognize the birth of our Savior and Redeemer who died on that cross for us.
So as I reflect on the memories that were made the last few days, I look to my Heavenly Father and thank him for on of the greatest blessings he bestowed upon me and that is the gift of motherhood. Kyli, Kelly, Cooper and Ana, I am proud and humbled that you chose me. <3 font="">
