Just a warning... get the kleenex handy, but PLEASE if you have young children watch this video, it has a very important safety message! My friend Michelle put this together in memory of her little man James. Window safety really was never something I thought much about, but I will now!
I am so grateful for Easter and the reminder is serves as that Christ has conquered all.
I, like everyone else that has ever lived on this planet have had my share of heart ache. Life never ends up exactly as we mapped out when we were 13 does it? I've seen people I love suffer the gammet of heart wrenching experiences from divorce to death to bankruptcy.
Recently a good friend of mine stood at deaths door and it has been an eye opening experience for me. In a world full of hate and greed I've seen love and compassion. People that didn't even know my friend have reached out. They've prayed. They've kept my phone ringing off the hook to see if I knew anything new. They've asked what they could do. People are good. People care. The light of Christ is still alive on this earth.
I know He loves each one of us more than we could ever fathom. He made the ultimate sacrifice for us so that we could have the opportunity to have a second chance. He triumphed over death and sin, so that none of the negative things we experience in this life will ever be permanent. Because of Him, not matter what happens here, we have the opportunity to have a happy ending.
I love Easter.
We had a fun Easter, even though it was mingled with some sickness. Sami had a cold and was coughing for several days. I thought it was clearing up so we took the kids to the ward Easter party and then to the Francis (Bretts grandparents) Easter egg Hunt/dinner. The kids had a blast!

I hate it when they are sick, I feel so bad for them.... but I take advantage of the snuggle time! We don't get much of that these days, they're too busy to snuggle with mommy!
This is my friend Kim and her cute little family.
Kim is a young, fun, amazing mother and friend.
Kim found out today that she has a tennis ball sized tumor in her brain.
She will go in for brain surgery tomorrow. They won't know until they get "in there" how deep it is or if it is malignant.
Kim needs your prayers!
Anyone willing is invited to participate in a fast for Kim Truman tomorrow. Please pray for her that all goes well so she can enjoy a long life with her cute little family.
