Kaitlyn & Brian Visit







I miss Kaitlyn so much, and I was so excited when she and Brian told me they would be able to visit this weekend. It has been months since I've seen Brian. Seeing them together, here with the family, made me miss them even more. I wish so badly that they lived closer. I tried so hard to be up to par with them while they were here, I made sugar cookies for Kaitlyn because I know how much she loves them, and she asked me to make them since it was Valentine's Day weekend. Even though my body was in pain, my heart was happy because they were here.
We had a lot of fun just staying at home and enjoying each other. Brian and Kaitlyn are so cute, and I know why Kaitlyn married him. He is perfect for her in every way. Today they went back to their home in Utah, and I am sad again. Having all of my family in one place simultaneously will be a dream come true; the next time that will happen is when Blake gets home from his mission, and speaking of Blake, I miss him and have shed more than one tear over that boy lately. Even as I feel the aching in my body, I am so grateful to be a mom, not only a mom but also to be Kayla, Blake, Kaitlyn, and Haleigh's mom.
Being a mom is easy when you know they make wise choices and include the Lord in their lives.
