stranger danger

tonight we decided to talk to the kids about strangers. just to refresh their memories. so we told them that you do not tell them your name, that you do not take anything from them, that you never play with any toys they offer or any pets they might have...but in our own forgetfulness we forgot one..
and we thought we were doing so good.
here was our conversation, garran was pretending to be the stranger:
Garran: hello little boys, what is your name
Cullan: We can't tell you our name. We are leaving.
Garran: Well I have this candy (suckers)...do you want any?
Cullan and Kael: No thanks.
Garran: Well do you guys want to come and see my car. I have some cool stuff in there?
Cullan and Kael: SURE!!!!

yeah, we had to add somethings to our list of things you don't do. however, up to that point, things were going pretty well!

I love the saying "the best thing a father can do for his children is to love their mother". My husband does an amazing job of that. I am truly married to my best friend. We laugh often and try to see the best in every situation, or at least find the humor in it. We have four beautiful children. Cullan (7) Kael (6) Briea (3) and Ayla (2). We are currently living in Illinois while Garran attends Grad School. He is a talented print maker and is enjoying his time here. He has a website if you are interested. www.garrangillespie.com Right now we are living every day to the fullest and trying to have as much fun as possible along the way!!

This explains why I blog so much RIGHT?

“Your journal is your autobiography, so it should be kept carefully. You are unique, and there may be incidents in your experience that are more noble and praiseworthy in their way than those recorded in any other life. …
“What could you do better for your children and your children’s children than to record the story of your life, your triumphs over adversity, your recovery after a fall, your progress when all seemed black, your rejoicing when you had finally achieved?”
Elder Spencer W Kimball!

I need to read this every morning!

"It isn't as bad as you sometimes think it is. It all works out. Don't worry. I say that to myself every morning. It all works out in the end. Put your trust in God, and move forward with faith and confidence in the future. The Lord will not forsake us. He will not forsake us. If we will put our trust in Him, if we will pray to Him, if we will live worthy of His blessings, He will hear our prayers."

-President Gordon B. Hinckley
