I know you all have stopped checking my blog becasue it sits the same always. I have to say that being a single mom is as hard as you would think. But I also feel very strengthened and I am feeling an amazing bond with my boys that I have never felt before. Probably because we have to stick together. For the first time in my mothering part of marriage, I feel so bad for John and how much he has to study and how bogged down and overwhelmed he is, that I am not feeling sorry for myself. Even though it gets very tiring, atleast I can go to the park and play outside and chat with friends and talk on the phone and read boods and cut and clolor and play pirates and go for walks and go shopping...... Sounds tough! I have the easy part currently atleast it would seem. I also feel closer to John because this is such a hard time. It's harder in a physical way......just trying to keep going and do it all over and over.
But I feel so blessed! John gave me a blessing before school started and I feel it everyday. I feel myself being sustained far beyond my own capacity and I feel the Lord right with me when I think I can't do it anymore. I also have the most wonderful boys. Isaac is growing up so much and is such a big helper. He is more obediant and is so good to Easton. And Easton just adores Isaac. I am also relying on friends around me who are husbandless alot as well. They truly are a strength beyond description. I just feel so blessed and can feel the Lord's love always lately. And I am so grateful for this up time in my life when I was expecting it to be a low time.
I have a bunch of pre AZ trip pics to post but for some reason my computer will not upload my picures. As soon as it does I will post some more.
Anyway, I frequently find Easton doing this to Isaac. He loves to snuggle him.

I'm so glad that you are happy and doing well. Lane to is working long hours and sometimes I feel the same way. The boys are getting so big and looking more and more alike! If you ever need a day away St. George is close! :)
