I have been a terrible Slacker! Kelly had to use the camera for a job he went to Houston and Ohio for and so I just got out of the habit of taking pictures. But the camera (and the husband) are back so I will hopefully be back blogging. I am putting some random pictures on while I get re organized.
This picture is a great demonstration of a joke Adam (funniest guy on earth) told me awhile back. I was sitting at my computer with my back to the room (and to Adam). Suddenly Adam said "Bear you're in the Frito position." with out turning around I said, "do you mean the fetal position?" He said "No, he wants my Frito's so he is in the Frito position" He is just the funniest fella!
Bear is our dog he is an awesome boy.
My incredibly awesome and talented daughter has written some more poems for us. She is hoping that Heather can see some photo ops of something to go with them. here they are.
Night
Quite why?
Is it honor,
or the love of God,
or is it when
the spirits of the dead
living life again
but silently,
the crickets and the cicadas
singing to them.
Moonlight
Shining and glimmering
in the water
or off the green,
red, orange,yellow,
bronze and brown leaves
or off sleek cats fur moving about.

Comparing
Starlight and moonlight
or electric light
which is more beautiful?
Starlight and moonlight?
Or electric light?
Moonlight and Starlight!
Likely right?
You answer.
Ben recently gave a talk in Primary it is about being Thankful.
I am thankful for my family, they help me to learn how to be a good brother, a good son and to know I am a child of God. In Ephesians Chapter 5 verse 20 it says "Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ"
It is not easy to give thanks all the time. Sometimes bad stuff is happening. But it says to give thanks ALWAYS for ALL things. So that is what I am going to do.
God loves me. He will comfort and protect me. He will walk beside me and hold my hand. I can be thankful for things that bring me that close to Him. I am thankful for this talk, it helped me to learn about being thankful even when it is hard.

I love Ben too! I bet he did so well giving his talk in Primary. Thanks for posting it so I could read it.
Ari, I think you have a gift and I very much love reading your things. One of these days you'll have to put a book together of your poems and the pictures Heather has illustrated some of them with. Love, Oma
I love reading about the kids. Ari you are so talented and Ben gave a wonderful talk. I don't know if I could do the same as an adult. Adam - we need a joker in every family. They make the world go round. - Cris
