A letter to Hudsen's Primary Teacher

Hudsen wrote a letter for her Primary Teacher and shared it with me. I thought it was so precious, I asked her if I could copy it to save on our blog.

Grumpy Ol Troll

We have this super grumpy neighbor, whom we have nick named The Grumpy Ol Troll. The other week the kids were playing baseball and hit a ball into his front yard. They went to get their ball and he started yelling at them saying if they came onto his yard again, he would call the cops. This really freaked Clarke out. He has been scared to go outside to play because he doesn't want to get rested, as he calls it. :) It was really sad. Clarkie is doing better though, he still gets a little nervous sometimes. Well anyways last night Ryan gave an awesome FHE lesson. It was about how we are all Heavenly Fathers children and he loves all of us. Ryan started naming a bunch of people and telling the kids that Heavenly Father and Jesus Love all of us. Even the Grumpy Ol Trolls name was brought up. :) Today, on our walk to pick Hudsen up from school Clarke says, "Mom, Jesus loves the Grumpy Ol Troll too huh?" :)

September

Hudsen received the Scholar Award for her 1st Grade class! We are so proud of our little smarty pants!! In Love with this 8 month old

Allie is not a snuggler. I am sooo enjoying this moment!!

The only good thing about a sick baby is lots of cuddle time. ;)

Jumping High

Coolest 4 year old I know!

Just Thinking

My Thoughts... Last night Clarke came into our room and hopped into bed with me because he was scared. I never want to forget how good it felt to hold him, or anyone of my kids in situations like these. I LOVE them all so much. They are growing up way too fast for me. It makes me feel good that they always come to me for comfort and to feel safe. It makes me think of my Mother and how much I Love her. And how she can always makes things better. I'm so very blessed and very thankful for the wonderful beautiful mother that I have.

LOVE LOVE & LOVE

In LOVE with these 3 little ones!!
* We didn't go to Ward Conference because, we were all a little stuffed up, and Little Miss Allie has a bad cough. At bath time Clarke tells me, "It's good we didn't go to church today because look." (He points to a bunch of fake tattoos on his arm). "They would probably call 911." :)

* Part of Clarke's prayer last night... Bless Dad to have Covedience. :)

* Tonight, Clarke was in charge of FHE. He did a great job!! He then asked if anyone would like to share their testimony. He went first and was so precious. Then Hudsen decided she wanted to share hers. Hudsen was so cute and precious as well. Hers was rather long. :) During hers Clarke leaned over to Dad and said, "Wow, That's a good testimony." :)

Mavericks Game

We went with our ward to a Mavericks Game for FHE one evening. It was so much fun. The Kids had a blast!!! Ryan ran across the field with Hudsen and Clarke for the kids run. Soo cute!!!

Things to Remember

Hudsen-- "When I'm famous my stage name will be Sparkle Jones!"

Clarke (4)-- "Hudsen, you are afraid of Nanny Mcphee huh?"
Hudsen (6)-- "Not anymore, I'm grown up now."

Clarke likes to send Dad texts every once in a while. I let him just go to town on my phone and then he translates for me, so I can text Ryan a translation. His last text said... I love you Dad. When are you coming home today? I miss you. I wish you can bring doughnuts and me and Hudesn a happy meal. Don't forget your wallet. Love Clarke.
