Happy Mother's Day!!!

Today is Heather's first "real" Mother's Day. I say real because before she always felt depressed and sort of left out. But now we have Christian!!!!Yeah!!!!! Both Heather and Christian are sleeping right now so I thought I would write a message while I had a moment. I am so thankful that I have Heather in my life. She is so good for me; we balance each other out.

I spoke with my own Mother earlier today and she seemed to be doing well. I am glad to be her son and hope she is happy with what I've done with my life so far. Nevertheless, referencing my previous blog, I still hold a melancholy outlook. Thinking to myself lately, the question dawned: "The year is 2008, I graduated from High School almost nine years ago, and what have I become?" Certainly blessings frequently occur in my life. Certainly my circumstances could be worse. The most sobering fact of all: my choices and attitude exercise ultimate influence over my future. The outcome depends solely on me. I am definitely thankful for my job, home, and family. However, I often feel the slow pace of my educational pursuits depresses my outlook on the future. Now as a father, I feel this worry heightens my sense of urgency to get where I want to be.........Okay, Commercial Break.............I am sure that you all are sick of my rambling reflections so I am going to post some pictures of the ever popular Chocolate Christian:






The pictures listed above were from last weekend. We went to Richmond to see my nephew Cory receive the Aaronic Priesthood. Well, we are going to Farmington to celebrate Mother's Day. Thanks for your time and Congrats all Mothers and Mothers to be!!!!!
