I know we need them to help us learn and grow, but why do they have to come all at once??
Danny and I have worked so hard to get to where we are now and it seems like every time we seem to think we are getting ahead of the game something comes and smacks us right back down again. It just seems like we can never catch a break in life.
I don't really want to get into what is happening right now but let's just say that we haven't had the greatest few days around our house. I'm just sick of it all!! I see some of our friends lives and from the outside looking in they seem to be doing so well for themselves, buying houses getting ready to have babies and starting their lives and then there is us.
Don't get me wrong I am so greatful for everything we have, from our cars to our house to our clothes and to our health. It just feels like there is so much more out there for us but it seems like it is always just right out of reach for us. We feel like we are so close to having our lives "fit" and than we wake up one morning and it's gone!
Sometimes I wish Heavenly Father would just set out our plans and let us just go for it without interruptions and without any problems. But I guess that would ruin his plan for us now wouldn't it?
I am so greatful for our family who has rallied around us the last few days and offered us their love and support. We love you and we thank you

Jacy,
I don't know what you are going through but know that I am thinking about you:)
Everyone has trials in their life and sometimes the timing sucks but you have a great sense of humor about things and I see you getting through this!
Jacy,
We all have sooo many trials and it is the way we deal with them that gets us through life and it always makes us stronger. It has always been easier for me to make it through them knowing that heavenly father gives trials to those he trust. Even though sometimes you wish he didn't always trust you so much. Things will get better hang in there.
Love, tasha
thanks guys for your thoughts. we will be fine. I was just stressing out and needed to vent. Thanks Rosie and Tash!
One thing I've learned is that everyone's life is not always as perfect as you think. I love having family, because if I am going through something ruff, chances are one of my sisters or someone I know has been there too. I feel it almost necessary to quote George Michael for you... ok I won't but you know where I was headed.
"a time for every season", it just really sucks sometimes! If there is anything I learned from trying to get my two boys here (which applies to all trials) is that timing is everything. It's not easy, but sometimes when you let go of the handle bars and let Heavenly Father take you on the ride he wants you to be on, it can be an exilerating and take you places you never would have imagined for yourself. pay attention, learn and keep doing the small and simple things to keep yourself ready for the blessings that WILL come to those that endure! (I know, I've been there, just remember people love you and are praying for you...what ever it is.)
