Lance Boy

Today Lance got it. He did it today, he started walking!! He is walking all over the place. yahoo! The difference between Whitney and Lance is that Whitney was very cautious. She would hold on to thing until she knew she could walk without falling and so once she finally let go of the wall she was off and running. Lance was not afraid to fall, he has been trying to stand and walk even before he was one and he had a lot of bad falls. I called him my bruiser because for a week of so his face was covered on bruises because he was falling so much. But today it just sunk in and he has been walking. I am really happy because Berny was watching the kids all day today because I went to Island Park for Aunt Kari's funeral. So it was a special day for Lance that his dad was able to be the first witness to.
Kari's funeral was an amazing experience. I realized how much I really love my mom's family and my cousins, and I know that Heavenly Father is mindful of that family. I also realized that I want to be a much better person. I want to be the wife and mother that when I die they can know that I loved them, and sacrificed to them, and that I have a strong testimony of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Some personal goals that I made for myself was that I want to be better and making breakfast for my family, and I want to make sure that I am always praying for my husband and my children. I want to know their need and be able have the faith that when I pray for those needs that the Lord will answer my prayers.
