Just saying Hi!

So I wanted to share these pictures with you guys! Cooper has a obsession with having to use the mop,broom and vacumm it is great he that he thinks he is helping but ends up not really but you gotta love that he is trying! So this is where I found him the other day! Guess it was hard work!! It was just funny to me!!
Well I am feeling so much better! I am finally sounding normal again! But I have little miss Sierra who is not feeling well I feel bad for her but there isnt much I can do I am just hopeing that her ear infection doesnt come back but I have a feeling it is. I feel like my posts are boring sorry guys but not much happening! Just home with the kids and daycare kids do that whole routine daily while trying to do school work during the day between laundry, cleaning, making meals etc. then try and do some school work at night after everyone is in bed! I am doin pretty good I have gotten all A on my test except for one I got a C bummer I know but it is going good and I am enjoying it! Right now I am doing medical terminology and it is alot of information but I really like it! Thats it for now!!

Just a update!

Dont really have anything to blog about! But I have put the potty training on hold for a couple weeks and will try again! He sits on it no problem!! But will pee right after getting off! Anyway I have been sick the last couple of days really bad cold with aches so fun!!! So really havent been doing much! Sometimes I wish when I was sick I could just stay in bed all day and sleep!!! So not happening when you have five kids!!! Well that is it for now!

So Tired!! But Determined!!

I feel so out of it! Sierra is sick right now with a bad cold and cough! She hasnt been sleeping so in turn that means I havent been sleeping! Today she just kept screaming all day so I called the after hours clinic and they had a appt available Yeah!!! I didnt want to take her to the emergency room! Well just what I thought she has a ear infection! So now she has medication which by tomorrow I hope that she will be feeling better! So I have been saying that tomorrow that I am gonna start the task of potty training Cooper I just hope that he will be easier than Hunter and Sage! Savannah was easy! I just want Cooper to be as easy as her!! Please oh Please!!! I will let you know how it goes tomorrow!! We got the underwear out tonight! We got him a special cup to keep him drinking fluids so that he has to go more!! He seems really excited when I talk to him about it! But we will see how he feels about it when he is gonna be on the potty pretty much all day!! He says he wants to a BIG BOY just like bub(Hunter) that is what he calls him!! So everyone wish me luck and that I get some sleep tonight to take on this task tomorrow!!

"Security"
One of the greatest human needs is a sense of security. In all aspects of life, we naturally gravitate towards anything that makes us feel safe. In this piece, I wanted to convey a sense of complete peace and calm like only the Savior can provide. It's a security that allows us to rest assured, without fear or worry, when we put ourselves trustingly in His arms. Little children have that inherent kind of trust in their parents, so it's fitting that the man and girl who modeled for "Security" are actually father and daughter. They generatedthe exact feel I was looking for.

"My Child"
This piece conveys an intimate, up-close-and-personal feeling of the Savior's love. Notice how all the lines draw your attention and point towards Jesus' face in the center. I chose the name "My Child" because the only thing that could compare (even remotely) to Christ's compassion for us is the love of a parent for his/her child. This image is also intended to put things in perspective. Above all, we are God's children first. He allows us the privelege of experiencing parenthood for ourselves and we are entrusted to be the mothers and fathers of His children here on earth.


"Innocence"
The Savior tells us we need to become as little children to inherit the kingdom of God. I've often wondered what it is about little children Jesus loves most, and I think its their innocence. They are clean slates, seeing the world and others through untarnished eyes. Their hearts are pure, without the baggage of cynicism and self-doubt. In this piece, I've tried to imagine how a child would act upon meeting the Master for the first time. Without reservation or inhibition, I think he would simply want to play with Him. He would be at complete ease, allowing his pure little heart to soak in the love and laughter of His pure, infinite heart. Its no wonder Christ delights in these little ones and sets them up to be our examples.
