Zach...kinda sappy

Lately life has had it's up's and down's and I've been going crazy trying to get all the Christmas things done.  So far I've made a kindness elf for our girls since they really really wanted one for Christmas, Christmas pj's are almost done, made 2 stockings to match our others, made some crowns, I've cut out all the pieces to a dress I'm making for one of my girls and I've made a few goodies to take to people.  It's been a lot of work.  I feel like I may not have time to get everything done.  I still have so much to do!  But I will try none the less.  Trying to keep my house clean while trying to get everything else done is hard!  Then Elsie asks if we can go see the Lions at the zoo and I can't help but stop for a day to go take her to the zoo.  She has been very patient with all my projects.

But with all the hustle and bustle sometimes it's hard to stop and smell the roses.  To really look around and see the good that is all around.  You guys can I just say that the man I married is trying an amazing man!  First off he puts up with my crazy and supports me when I choose to learn and do all the things I do.  Then he helps with so much around the house.   Right now he is laying with our 3 oldest to help them go to sleep.  I usually help the baby and he helps the older one and can I just say how grateful I am.  It truly is such a blessing.  Then last weekend I had a ton of clothes to fold that were all over the couches and he started helping.  My girls were complaining about having to help and so Zach decided to make it funny and put some panties on his head.  The girls thought it was hilarious.


A couple days ago Kali needed to go do an MRI and she chose her Dad to go with her.  She didn't want me she only wanted her Dad.  I'm grateful that she trust him and that she loves him as much as she does.  As you can see from this pictures all my girls love and adore their Dad.  I'm truly blessed to have this man in my life!  I guess you could say my girls are pretty lucky too.  Everyone always feel sorry for me when I tell them we have 4 girls but honestly I can't imagine anything different.  My Husband is so good with these precious girls and I'm so thankful for all He teaches me and them every day!

A beautiful life

After writing the post about Kali and all that we've gone through I realized that I sounded very negative and while it's all very frustrating I was sitting here tonight editing some pictures I took of my family and I just felt very very grateful for all the many blessings that I have!  I mean I have an amazing Husband who would truly do anything to help me and our girls be happy.  He also works so hard and is an amazing provider for our family.  I also have 4 beautiful and intelligent daughters!   Yes I could wish things were better or that other things in my life were different but really being imperfect is what makes us human.  Life would be boring if we were all perfect.  I'd say I've got it pretty good.  So on that note here are some fun pictures I took of my sweet family tonight.  I love all these people with all my heart and I'm so grateful God gave me such an amazing family!
