The Pursuit of Happiness.....

Thank you to Jessi for your latest post. There was a quote that stuck out SO profoundly for me. It was by Elder Holland and it said "when suffering, we may in fact be nearer to God than we've ever been in our entire lives." That's SO true. Never in my life have I felt so fulfilled. I've been struggling more than I ever have and more than I probably ever will, and I feel great. It's crazy, but I do. I've completely turned my life around and I'm becoming the person I want to be, and the person I was made to be. I've always been told, "God never gives us more than we can handle," and I see that now.

Also, I came across this picture and it immediately made me think of Easton. The way he struggles to lift his head up and the little wrinkles on his forehead. LOVE IT!! And tell me that Mary doesn't look as beautiful as Karlee??? It was SO meant to be.

  1. I'm so glad you liked that video, Natalie! I know I did ... I've watched it probably 15 times!

    Oh and LOVE the picture. It's pretty much the perfect match :)
