The Testaments
We just finished watching The Testaments again and I had to get the box of tissues out.
One of my favorite (of many) parts is the end where it says “The Messiah has come, and He will come again.”
Prayer
We had Stake Conference today. I was reminded that when I pray, rather than asking God to help someone, to ask God what he would have me do to help someone.

The little store that could
We’ll it’s official, Fresh & Easy (in our neighborhood) will be opening 9 a.m. on January 30th. It’s super-close to where we live, has decent produce and competitive prices. I have to say I’m pretty excited, we checked out another store further away that’s already open. It’s like a cross between a traditional grocery store and whole foods in a small package.
Car Blankey Hat
Kenn took pieces of Quinan’s shredded and beloved car blankey and sewed them on a hat that she “spool knitted” as a Christmas present for him.
Romney takes a call from the Governator
I though Matt Romney’s prank call to his dad. was hilarious. Definitely something my brother Doug (and probably all my other brothers) would do.

Some day
Jensen has a fever today and Michele stayed home with her during the first part of church. I spent about 15-20 minutes during church literally wrestling Quinan. Fortunately after the sacrament Quinan fell asleep in about 15 seconds.
Michele and I traded places, and I’m now back home. Jensen is sounds asleep, but still has a fever. My poor baby girl (who’s not much of a baby) I hope she feels better soon.

Return of the Croup
Quinan went to bed pretty early tonight since he didn’t have a nap. We took him potty about 10:30 p.m. and everything seemed normal. About 1 a.m. I heard him walk into our room and noticed that he was having trouble breathing. So we spent a little while sitting on the porch wrapped in blankets. His croup seems to have lessened (but not as quickly as before) and he’s now inside breathing in the mist of a humidifier.
