Our Many Blessings: September 2012

Monday, September 17, 2012. Time Out For Women - 2012. I'm entering my second week of taking care of sick kids. Last week Jonas and I both came down with a stomach bug. I was a little concerned because I had tickets for Time Out For Women and did not want to miss it! Luckily we were both recovered by Friday, and Charlotte was showing no symptoms. Well, she tossed her cookies 15 minutes after getting to school this morning so I turned my car back around to go get her and here we go again! I was also fortu...

Friday, August 9, 2013. C's 5th Birthday - Part 2. A Little Family Get Together on Her Birthday. We have a tradition that the birthday person gets to pick what they want for dinner on their birthday. Doesn't everyone have that tradition? This year Charlotte asked for peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and mashed potatoes.so that's what we had. We then opened up some gifts. Happy to get a glove and ball to play with Daddy. Pink boots.a dream come true! This is how it looked when we gave it to her. Simple ...

Our Many Blessings: June 2012
http://farawaynelson.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 28, 2012. C's friend outgrew her bike, and we were the lucky recipients of her old one! We've been wanting to get C a bike for a while now, but they're just so expensive. (well, really her birthday is in August, and I always imagine her riding a bike for two months before winter sets in and then growing out of it by next summer. I feel like it'd be wasted money to buy her a new one.at least until she's bigger). And then she was really upset when I wouldn't help her every time. I had C make...

Our Many Blessings: Hello Kindergarten!
http://farawaynelson.blogspot.com/2013/08/hello-kindergarten.html
Monday, August 26, 2013. Charlotte started Kindergarten today. She was "a little bit excited and a little bit nervous. Excited to go, but nervous because it's all day." She wasn't sure she'd be okay away from me for that long. (I wonder if we feel the same way before we come to Earth.Anyway.). The report that came back from her at the end of the day was a positive one. She loved school, and she was so busy that she didn't even notice that she was gone from me all day. August 27, 2013 at 1:54 AM. Subscrib...

Our Many Blessings: Becoming "Free," I mean "Three"
http://farawaynelson.blogspot.com/2013/09/becoming-free-i-mean-three.html
Wednesday, September 11, 2013. Becoming "Free," I mean "Three". J turned three this past week. He pronounces three as "free." He has been so excited to get bigger so that he can walk beside the cart at the store instead of ride in it. When he woke up on his birthday morning the first thing he asked me was,"Can I walk now? We had a little family party for him on Saturday night. He chose hot dogs, salad and chips for his birthday dinner. He never ceases to amaze me with the things he says and what he does!

Thursday, August 29, 2013. So, here it was the night before kindergarten, and I realized that it was just going to be me and Jonas at home all day. I love Jonas, and it wasn't disappointment about spending time with him that I was feeling. It was more just disappointment that I don't have another child yet. It has been fun doing activities together (like playing with shaving cream) that we normally don't do because he is playing with his sister. Monday, August 26, 2013. She is going to the same elementar...

Our Many Blessings: April 2012

Monday, April 23, 2012. Day Eight - Passions. 2 Families. Not just my family, but all families. I agree with Elder M. Russell Ballard's recent remarks at General Conference:. And, of course, societies at large are strengthened as families grow stronger. Commitments to family and values are the basic cause. Nearly everything else is effect. Of our lifetime is our families. If we will devote ourselves to this cause, we will improve every other aspect of our lives and will become, as a people and as a c...

Friday, August 31, 2012. First Day of School. Charlotte had her first day of school on Monday. The preschool we were going to send her to in Ohio was only 3 days a week. The one I was able to get her in here is every morning and at the elementary school. It was a little hard for me. I felt like I was sending her to elementary school an entire year earlier than I had planned. She absolutly loves it though! Thursday, August 30, 2012. Second 4th Birthday Celebration. They're really cute and VERY Charlotte.

Friday, July 13, 2012. Thank you to all our family and friends who have been so encouraging and supportive in response to my last post. Now, I made a promise to share with you all the reasons we're happy to be here in Texas. 2 Cassie. You know they always say it's great to marry your best friend, but when I married my best friend I got a second best friend along with it. I didn't realize I was getting a package deal! How many of you can say you're best friends with your sister-in-law? The Jensens - I lov...
