Jaremy's been gone for four days. Tonight he's back and taking me to the Indian Oven. I'm excited! My hair is curled and I'm looking forward to adult conversation and relaxation. I hope Jaremy is too! I'm so blessed to have a husband that puts his family first no matter what!
The last couple of days we have been watching President Obama's speech and the Republican Presidential Debate. I love politics! I'm definitely very conservative! I believe the private sector and individuals and families should do most of what government does now. Government is huge and ineffiecent and unaccountable to a large extent. We have lots of good nominees this year in the Republican party. I'm looking forward to all the excitement and battles. Principles and values and our future are at stake. It's so exciting! Heavenly Father has blessed us to live in this great land of freedom!

A Marvelous Monday!
I spent the day in footzoning class here at home. My teacher, Lu Parkin, and two other women came here to the class. It's fun to learn a way to help my family stay healthy or recover from illness or injury. It's a simple way to bring comfort and love to my family.
The class took most of the school day. Then Deborah, Jaremy's mom, and Robert, her husband, stopped by. She wasn't feeling well so I zoned her feet. Zoning is a kind of reflexology massage in case you were wondering.
The kids were put on the back burner today. That rarely happens, but I wanted to make sure they had some sunshine and exercise. So we went to the park a few blocks away.
When we arrived home my sister, Melissa, called. By the time Jaremy got home at about 5:30 I still hadn't figured out dinner yet. So he said let's get in the van and go out to eat. He said it was my Valentine's present not to have to fix and clean up dinner. He's such a sweetheart! He already took me out to the Iron Gate Grill on Saturday night for Valentine's Day. I wish I'd been more prepared, but the day unexpectedly became overbooked. I felt guilty, but we had fun at Chic'Filet. I'll work harder so we don't have to waste money on silliness.
Yesterday I taught the Relief Society lesson. I mentioned my life is so blessed! It's better than I dreamed it would be, and I dreamed big! I feel so overwhelmed with gratitude for the beautiful life Heavenly Father has given me. I feel my challenges are so easy and small compared to thoses around me. I am humbled by the comforts, wonderful people, beautiful surroundings, and love that are constants in my life. I'm so grateful for a loving, talented husband who is the father of our loving, talented children. I'm so grateful for my knowledge of Jesus Christ and His gospel. I don't know why I'm so blessed when others are lonely, sick, afraid, hungry, sad, impoverished, or without the knowledge of God. It makes me want to share what I have. It makes me want to live better, give more, become more. I hope I can. Life is beautiful!! Life is a gift from our Heavenly Father!!
