I feel the need to state...

...that none of my posts are meant in any way to be a form of complaining about my kids. I post mearly to record my life in its day to day in such a way that is fun for me to remember them.

I just was getting a feeling that some people were taking my posts the wrong way.

And now, I must go chase down some naked children before something bad happens.

I can only hope and pray that one day I will be able to do half the things you do with your kids! I love to read your latest posts and hear about the many adventures you guys experience! I think you're doing a fabulous job and keep it up!!

Brittney said...

I think your posts are awesome and hilarious and that you love your kids to death - otherwise why would you keep having them???? :)

I don't know how anyone who reads your posts can't tell how much you adore your children. And I appreciate the humor that you use to make fun posts and I'm sure you use that gift with your child every day too. They are really blessed to have such a good mommy!

I find your blog to be refreshingly "honest"...I love your HUMOR...in dealing with the every day...events...of life...I use to think I was the only "bad" mother among all my Sisters...because...generally the only time we saw each other was on Sunday....Everyone is neatly dressed up in Sunday clothes...(not me...if you children could not find matching shoes for church, I would simply place a pair of socks on your feet...and we left so we could be there on time...)Lets face it...in one "3" hour block...LIFE in other people's lives really do not manifest themselves...Most mothers used their "Sunday" voices...smiled alot...never really revealing the true nature of "home life"...I KNEW that at times...I "raised" my voice at home...I KNEW how our home looked during the week...when no one was coming over...I KNEW...how TIRED I really was...(7 children in a little over 8 years...)I KNEW I was the only mother who wasn't being the best model of what a "latter-day Saint" mother should be...I just KNEW I was the only one...who wasn't going to be exalted...because...I wasn't doing everything right...HOW WRONG I WAS...Over the years...after talking with so many of my dear Sisters...I found out...we were all feeling very similar...YOUR BLOG has been a WONDERFUL...tool...for YOU and others...to find a way...to take "everyday" seemingly..."ordinary" "NON-WORLDLY" events...and finding the JOY...that can be found in the most UNCELEBRATED role in life...and that of being a "homemaker"....Father gave you many wonderful gifts...and one of them...is finding "humor" (even if at the time it doesn't seem all that funny) in "ordinary" living...Father wants us to find the "JOY IN THE JOURNEY"...It helps to keep everything in perspective...for our REAL GOAL in life...is to learn from all that life has to teach...to one day...become like our Eternal Father and Mother...Thank you...my dear Sarah...for my daily chuckle...watching my grandchildren grow up...through YOUR EYES...! It is BLESSING MY LIFE...for I am a "Granny" who can only observe from a distance...LOVE YOU...my dear darling... Sarah...
