Abuse Talk

So our first Sunday back in Hawaii and I go to church with my mom. The next thing I know I am asked to teach next Sunday's Releif Society lesson. I am not sure I am really even in my mom's ward and now here I am teaching. The topic....sexual abuse, or really any kind of abuse. It's based on Elder Scott's last conference talk. This is a very sensitive topic to those who have experienced it, and to those who haven't I wonder if they really understand it. So I am imploring all the avid readers of my blog....HELP. Share with me your insight or suggestions, I beseech you and thank you.

A new gem in the garden

Two and half months ago our lives changed for the better. We had a baby girl, Emerald Lee Jayeng. She was 7lb 8ounces at birth. Now she is about 14lb. She has black hair and blue eyes, and tan skin. She knows what she wants and won't settle for less. On the whole she is easy to handle and doing so much better with sleeping at night than Topaz did at her age.

There is something about having children that teaches a person about life. Children are so forgiving; you can wrong them, punish them but they still want you and forget any wrong done. Also they are observant. They do what you do, say what you say, follow your example. They are so easily excited and eager to please. They are innocent but not ignorant. I watch my two year old, who pulls books off the shelf and picks cats up by the tail, and my new born, who is so helpless, and think that is how I want to be. If only we could keep our childhood a little longer.

In conclusion, here's your dang picture Rebekah:)
