26 cents to be exact.

yep this is how our morning started. at 5:30am cullan came into our room crying. i think i have mentioned that he is our early riser. anyways, he came in our room hysterical and said that he had swallowed a quarter and a penny. at first i thought he must be dreaming until he said he could feel them in his throat and i could see a lump in his neck. sigh. so up we get. got him dressed and myself. garran stayed with the others. while we were getting him dressed he said that the coins had moved and that they were in his chest now and that it hurt to breath. 
GREAT!
so i hurried and got him to the ER.  after checking him out and lots of x rays it turns out he will live to tell the tale. 
he will have to wait for them to pass naturally. 
i might add that cullan was quite the ladies man when we went to radiology. he had all the ladies in there cracking up and telling him how handsome he was. needless to say when we were done with the x-rays, he asked if we could go back for a visit!
i am so thankful that cullan is ok. Garran gave him a blessing before we left to go to the hospital and that seemed to really help and calm him down. 
lately i have been feeling extra grateful for my kids health and that they are here with me each day.

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
