guess Im out.

last night i was laying on the couch playing with briea. my shirt had come up just a bit above my pants. basically you could see my belly button. anyways cullan happened to be standing there and noticed something else. STRETCH MARKS. he all of a sudden was very concerned about what was wrong with my stomach. i told him that i had those from having him and Kael, Briea and Ayla in my tummy. That when your skin stretches that happens sometimes. 
That did not bring him much comfort. he went over to garran and asked if he had seen my stomach. Garran said that he did know about the stretch marks and that they were ok. That they did not hurt me and that they were just from having babies. 
All of a sudden Cullan burst into tears and says. Mom is going to die from her stretch marks and then you will have to marry some one else.
i thought. wow, well that was quick. a few stretch marks and i am out the door ;0)
garran reassured him that i would not die from stretch marks and that he was not going to marry anyone else because of them either. 
i got a good laugh from this but cullan was still very concerned.
he came downstairs this morning asking if he could see my stomach. he said he wanted to check on my stretch marks. i reassured him once again that i was fine, that they did not hurt, and that i was not going to die from them.
i don't know if that comforted him much. however after our conversation  i thought to myself, please don't let me be the first person to die from stretch marks. i can see the news stories now!!

Dude, I'm going to be heading up there with you then. I wonder if Guy Stretch marks kill you off too... my kids will be orphans. Better happen before I have any more (not announcing anything) otherwise Darcy won't take them. Love Kiddos!! :)

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
