One Step After Another

I found a great quote today that I wanted to share. I think its really important we remember this.. We can only take things as they come 1 day at a time, one foot in front of the other.. and we just do the best we can do and put the rest in our fathers hands...

"Our Heavenly Father loves each one of us and understands that this process of climbing higher takes preparation, time, and commitment. He understands that we will make mistakes at times, that we will stumble, that we will become discouraged and perhaps even wish to give up and say to ourselves it is not worth the struggle. We know it is worth the effort, for the prize, which is eternal life, is “the greatest of all the gifts of God.” And to qualify, we must take one step after another and keep going to gain the spiritual heights we aspire to reach."
By Elder Joseph B Wirthlin

Its been a rough week.. We had a nasty stomach virus go through our house and everyone came down with it except Allie and Steve..All they had was a little upset stomach so they were lucky..

Poor Jessie we had planned to have a birthday party for her with her friends on Sat. but ended up having to reschedule it for this Sat. instead because she had gotten the flu on friday.. I think we are all over it now so hopefully this week will be alot better. Yesterday (groundhogs day) was jessie's official birthday.. I will post more with pictures later..
