Friday Letters



Dear Children, we are back to the busyness of school and activities. I'm happy you all enjoy school. Dear House, you need a good cleaning. Especially the kids bathroom, I don't even want to go near it. Dear School, it's only been maybe 17 yrs. I don't like math. Dear Coldness, it has been so dang cold. My body is not handling the cold temps very well, I am always freezing. I can't seem to get my hands to work in this chill and they just hurt so bad. Things as simple as grocery shopping or using a pencil are slow and seem like torture. You can add typing to the list. Painful! Dear W+B, I am so grateful for your friendship these many years. It means a lot to me to know I can always come by and have you to talk to and confide in. Love you guys! Dear Willie, you have made me laugh a lot this week with your weirdness. Nothing new there. And I don't understand why you are always warm and I'm freezing. And no, it's not my cold heart. Dear Self, we will see how much I can handle this year. I go from determined to wishing it was nap time pretty quickly these days. And even though I already know, I am still amazed at how quickly the Lord can calm a fearful, sorrowful heart and replace it with calm, peace and love. I could never live without the gospel and the Savior in my life cause I have to start over every day. Sometimes more often than that.
