Some mountains we can overcome some we just make it to he top so we c an see other mountains. Ihave re read this talk about 10 times. It partains to our day. The mountains we have. The mountains I have

Wow time has passed
It's Sunday morning. Ican't believe os much time has passed. This last year has felt like eblur. The kids styed home this year with COvid restrictions. Blake and I tried to home school one semester. he was happy to go back to school and loved his teacher Mrs. Yackey! He criedwhen the schoolyear was over. Ienjoyed having him at home. Phil went back to Loveland rFord but now has a new job in Longmont. He has beenworking hard for our family. Landon continued to work at Wlamart and got his mission call to Newport beachCalifornia. He leaves in September. Taylor played bballand did diving fro Windsor. he also built his own computer and likes to game. ihave been teaching piano like a crazy person and started exercising again. I have tried to let go of many social things and be at home.
We finally got to go to church. It was only an hour at first but now it is 2 hours. i am happy to be back in Primary. playing the piano and being with the kids. I feel like many things in the world are changing. President Biden waselected President after a grueling election against Donald trump. Trump did his best but sometimes evil and conspiring men have ways of manipulating the public. Great Grandma OUida moved in with my mom and da. It has really been hard on them. Ihave tried to help a little but franklyshe needs to be in a home where she can talk to people all day long. Iamnot sure how much longer my parents can hang on.
ilove my husband. It's been a very hard alst few months. No matter what happensIlove him and have been sohappy with the life we have created. Ifeelso blessedto lives here inWindsor and have 3wonderful boys and the church closeby. Ihave my health. Ihave friends.

Spring Sunday 2021
Sunday thoughts. Spring is here. We went down to Colorado Springs for Easter. We went to cave of the winds. Phil worked so it was just me and the boys. We had a great time but were happy to come home. So much has happened the past few months. Blake went back to school in January. We had a great couple months but it was time. It was harder on me because I actually liked homeschooling him. He said he loves school and that I was a horrible teacher. LOL. He is playing soccer right now and was on 2 basketball teams this year. it was a little much be he likes it. he has grown tall and is almost as tall as his teacher Mrs. Yackey.
Taylor has had a great year also. he played basketball in the winter. They had to wear masks but at least they got to play. He is diving right now and is atypical MS. student. He graduates from 8th soon and will be a HS. He has had a great friend group and we are very proud of the sweet person he has turned out to be. He is president of his teachers quorum and he sis very kind to everyone. I am hoping he has a great HS experience but this year has really been a good one for him.
Landon has had an interesting year also. he has been working at Walmart but was hit by a cop car head on February 18. His wrist was broken and he blacked out. for the impact and crash he was lucky to not have been hurt worse. The cop was chasing a speeder going th opposite direction and didn't see Landon'scar in the rear view mirror. He was on his way to institute. I showed up to the crash scene and it was something out of a movie. There were ambulances and the street was blocked off. He was sitting in a cop car. They let me walk to him. he was shakey but ok. We left and then went to Urgent care the following day. He hasn't been able to work at Walmart fro a few months but has been coaching Soccer for WCA HS boys. They have loved having him as their coach and want him to come back next year. He will probably be gone but never know.
Phil has been busy also the last few months. He left Loveland Ford and is now working at Frontline Auto in Longmont. He seems to like it much better. He has gotten into disc golf and lost 20 pounds. He has a lot of dedication and strength. I'm excited fro him to rest a little more but that's how life is. We are kind of counting down the months being with Landon. We were finally able to go back to church and started primary for the kids. I've been teaching piano and juggling soccer and having 1 less car and Landon needing a car. I've tried to get back into working out but need to be more serious to see some real results. I've been working on my ADD and anxiety trying to keep those under control. Not being successful sometimes but some days are good.
I'm excited about piano recitals this year because kids haven't been able to perform or share for 2 years. We lost the church keys sothat has been a stresser. And they asked me to helpwith girls camp this year. It will be a different experience but fun also.
It was nice to listen to General Conference Easter weekend and I am really interested in what our prophets and apostles have to say and know Heaven;y Father is watching from afar with the pandemic etc. . I have dwelt with depression severly the last 2 months and am hoping to find a way to move on from it. It has been hard on Phil also. I hope we will be ok. Anyway happy Sunday
