there are many times as a parent that we feel proud...the first steps, first words, good report cards, dance recitals, sporting events, etc.

and then there are those moments for me that warm my heart, not so much pride...but of a happy contentment. When my children are kind and helpful, when I watch them create, or dance around the house together, or play outside in the sprinkler being happy, when they do things that are difficult and come through the other side...
last night I got a text from a friend that was up a Girl's Camp,
"Anna bore a great and very emotional testimony, it was awesome."
that was an entire new feeling. I know there are NO guarantees in life, especially that your children will believe the things you do, or always make wise choices...however, in this moment I felt very pleased, absolutely wonderful. I truly love that girl.

I would feel the same way. You have really good kids. I found your blog again! I need to put your new link on! I want to buy those crackers...I love crackers and I love cheese. Are you moving? I'm probably totally clueless...we all need to meet up again one of these years and have dinner!
