While trying to find a talk for Brittlynn and studing my leason I came across this. With all that is going on in our house right now for what ever reason this gave me a little peace today so I thought I would share!
Heavens Grocery Store
I was walking down life's highway a long time ago. One day I saw a sign that read, "Heaven's Grocery Store." As I got a little closer the door opened and I saw a host of angels, they were standing everywhere. One handed me a basket and said;" My child, shop with care. " Everything a Christian needed was in the grocery store; and all you couldn't carry, you could come back for more.
First, I got some Patience. Love was in the same row, further down was Understanding, you need that everywhere you go. I got a box of Wisdom, a bag or two of Faith. I just couldn't miss the Holy Spirit, for it was all over the place. I stopped to get some Strength and Courage to help me run the race. By then my basket was getting full, but I remembered I needed some Grace. I didn't forget Salvation, for Salvation was free. So I tried to get enough of that for you and me.
Then I started to the counter to pay my gracery bill, for I thought I had everything I needed to do my Master's will. When I went up the isle I saw Prayer and I had to put that in, for I knew when I stepped outside. I would run right into sin.
Peace and Joy were plentiful. They were on the last shelf. Song and Praises were hanging near, so I just helped myself. Then I said to the angle,"How much do I owe?" He just smiled and said," Just take them everywhere you go."
Again I smiled at him and said "How much do I really owe?" He smiled at me and said, "My child, Jesus paid your bill a long, long, time ago."

SO I am not ever really adventurus, expecially with all four kids by myself, but we are all getting on each others nerves being home all the time so off we went to the Christmas parade. It was pretty fun. We went to go see Santa at the Sugar mill after (Fun stores in there everyone should check it out) then we ran over to the Rec. center to watch some friends in the Nutcracker, ran to Broulims to catch a quick hay ride and home!! I made it home with all four kids Eric is going to be so HAPPY!!
I can't believe Sadie is eight!! It seems like she was just layin in the NICU at 4lb 9oz. I can't imagin my life without her. With all the close calls between life and death with her I can just honestly say I am so greatful our Heavenly Father has let her stay with us. She makes me a better Mom to remind me to make each day count! She is such a joy and she has such a tender heart!! I love you sweety Happy Birthday!!!
So on the weekend that Eric comes home it is to do some construction jobs! So in order for us to see him we usually go and have lunch with him at the job site. Today they had these big dirt hills in the back. Of course the kids thought that was the best!!!
