In which my baby gets a name

But I can't tell you, because my mom gets all freaked out about using real names and all.

Sorry.

So this past week we've been blessed to have the majority of My Man's family in town. I never got all the "rotten in-law" jokes. Because mine, in a word, ROCK.

They came. We played. We blessed the NBC. They left. I cried.

But not before we took some pictures.

I have my priorities in order.

I love my men. That is all.

Words from President Thomas S. Monson

I need to remember this

It is true that we acquire children in a different way than we would acquire a company. And we are amateurs at the business of parenthood. One morning we wake up with a pink, wrinkled little bundle beside the hospital bed and presto! we are parents.

However, the development of lovely, joyful, responsible children doesn't just happen accidentally, any more than a successful corporation just happens. A unified, organized progressing family requires a unified, organized, progressive plan! Setting goals and producing a plan are just as essential to a mother and father as to a good company. - Linda Eyre
