Thinking

Now if my mom reads the title she will die. Because our family motto is Tigger's saying of
"Think, Think, Think". But I have been thinking of how blessed I am. I have a wonderful husband and a precious daughter and great family members on both sides. Who could ask for anything more? I know we have at least one more to join the family. Which is not anytime soon. So don't be thinking I am announcing something. But if there is one more besides that we shall see. It is too early to tell.

Life is beautiful. So I was reading my friend Whitney's blog (venable's link). She posted about a sad story of Brianna. It is about a child abuse case of a 5 month old baby. It brings tears to my eyes just thinking about it. As Kennedy nears 5 months, I just can't image why any one would do such an awful thing. Babies are so helpless. They put all their trust in us as their caregiver. They are so defenseless as well. We are suppose to protect them, not beat them to death. These kind of people should have their due punishment. It makes me think about all those families who are out their trying so hard to have a baby and can't. And then families who have children them selves or others beats a child. It makes you wonder why God would send such a precious thing to that family knowing the fate of that child. Maybe it was his or her test. But what a terrible one to experience. That is what our agency is for to make our choices. And we need to trust and put our faith in the Lord because he is all knowing.

As for more happier thoughts, we have started Kennedy on rice cereal. And oh boy, does she love eating it. I hope that she continues to be a good eater. If you talk with my mom, I was and pretty much still am a picky eater. I have learned and been more daring to try new things. But I have my limits. Blake on the other hand eats pretty much anything is site. I haven't yet in our married life see him not try something. But there is always a first. I guess you get used to trying weird things while serving a mission. Because from what he has said there are many times you don't ask what you are eating. I just couldn't do that. I have to know. And always wanting to know what is going on leaves no room for surprise. Which Blake sure tries awfully hard to do. And I LOVE it when he does surprise me. I just do not like the unknown. But we in the unknown every day.
