Emma

Happy 8th Birthday to my first born daughter!! I cant believe she is 8! Its such a big number to me! She has grown up so much, its crazy. She's no longer a baby! She growing into such a wonderful young woman. She is VERY helpful these days, and I know I can count on her when I need something. I'm so grateful for her and the example she is to me. She has taught me so much in her short life. I know she was meant for me. I love you Emma Lemma! We are all so thankful you are part of our family! Happy birthday sweet girl!!

Jack's 3rd Birthday Party

Jack had a very low key 3rd birthday! Only Marlee and her family and Beth and my mom came! And later we were blessed to have some good friends show! It was fun! We love our Jackie, hes so smart and fun and sweet and helpful! I'm so happy to have him as my son! I seriously cant believe he is 3! Thanks to all those who love my little man! He is so blessed to have such a great family!!

Jack

Oh my Jack! Words cannot express how I feel about you! You are the sweetest, cutest, most challenging child ever!! Ha! You teach me so much, and I'm sure there is plenty more for me to learn from you! I love how much you love, and how much you care about things, and how dedicated you are to things! You are smart, funny, clever and so much fun!! I'm so grateful to have you as my son! Happy Birthday! I seriously cant believe you are 3 already! Here's to many for fun years with you! 

We love you so very much!

Family

I sort of love my family! These were our Easter pictures...we never made it to the bluebonnets this year and I am super sad about that. Everyone had horrible allergies, and Lyla had the flu and one thing after another. We just missed them! So we took pictures on my bed! They turned out pretty good! The family one is with a timer again, not bad! I'm so very grateful for my Savior and his birth and death! I'm grateful for the death part cause that means as long as I stay worthy, I get to be with family for eternity! How wonderful is that? I cant wait! What would be the point in suffering through this life if we didn't have that opportunity later? I sure wouldn't want to be here learning and growing if I didn't have that promise! I hope that I can be the mom Ive always wanted to be to my kids...I hope I'm teaching them what they need, and loving them they way they need. Ive had some hard moments lately, so hard realizations. I need my Heavenly Father and my Savior! I need help every day. I am horrible at asking for it too. I sometimes (a lot actually) don't even feel worthy to pray to Him and talk to Him about my problems and my fears. I so need his guidance. I know I'm not the mom I always thought I would be, I yell way more than I every thought I would, I don't play with them enough and many more things. I'm finding it hard to figure out a balance. How does one person do EVERYTHING? Clean, cook, laundry, bathe, eat herself, take care of herself (shower, exercise...), grocery shop, run here and there, PTA, church callings, play with kids, dress kids, etc etc? Its so very hard. Harder than I ever realized. I know my Heavenly Father will help me, I know I am worthy to ask Him. I just need to remind myself of that...that's hard sometimes! Anyway, so now that Ive rambled my inner fears. I do know my Heavenly Father lives, and He loves me, and watches out for me, and my family! I'm grateful for His Son, Jesus Christ and for His suffering for me. That I might return and live with Him and my family again! 

I will forever be grateful for that!

Dean's Blessing Day

Dean was blessed at church on Mother's Day...May 11, 2014! What a special day it was! I love hearing those sweet blessing from our Father in Heaven...if only I could remember them. I'm so grateful for the priesthood that my husband holds and for the comfort and guidance it brings. I always feel so close to my Father when my children are receiving any priesthood acts! I love it! Thank you too all our family and friends who were able to be a part of such a special day! And being the lame mom that I am...I never took pictures of Dean alone in his blessing outfit. :( Maybe I can still sneak some in...

Dean

My sweet sweet Dean! We are so grateful to have you in our family!! Heavenly Father knew what He was doing when He made you! I cant wait (well I can) to see the boy and man you grow up to be! I'm so very thankful to have you as my son! I wish time could stand still sometimes so I can enjoy you a little longer! Thank you for choosing us! We love you Dean!

The Fullmers

Oh my sweet family, how I love them so!! I am one blessed woman! I couldn't have asked for a better husband and father for my children. And I couldn't have asked for better children! They have their flaws, but they are all so sweet and loving and smart and kind and spiritual! And many more things! The best part is that We are an Eternal Family and we get to be together forever!! I'm so so thankful for that knowledge! I don't know if our family is complete yet, but I do know that my Heavenly Father saved each one of these precious kids for me! I'm so glad He did, too! I love my family!!

Five

Our sweet Lyla Bell! Happy birthday baby girl! I cant believe she is 5 years old already! She has been such a joy in our family! She is the sweetest little girl you will ever meet. She has a sweet little voice that she says I love you with to everyone! One of my most favorite things about her is the love she has for her Father in Heaven and for Jesus Christ! She says all the time how much she loves them the most, then mom and dad, and then her siblings and everyone else! Her life is a fairy tale, literally! She sings all day long, when she isnt talking! I love this little girl! Im so happy she is part of our family! 

Love you Bell!! Happy 5th Birthday!
