Eisley's blessing

By
You girls are growing up so fast!

Eisley was blessed by Brendon on April 13. Your Aunt Brittany recorded it for us so here is the transcript:

 Eisley at this time we give you a blessing that you will know throughout your life that you are a daughter of God.you were sent here to this earth at this time to be a blessing to those around you.we bless you that you will be a light and a beacon to your friends, your family and to non-members. so they can look to you as an example for help and guidance to lead them to the Savior Jesus Christ. we bless you that you will make good choices throughout your life and be able to keep Heavenly Father's commandments. We bless you to know that when you keep the commandments it brings great blessings and happiness. we bless you that you will be baptized, that you will seek to go to the temple and seek someone worthy to take you there to be sealed for time and all eternity. Eisley, your family loves you and more importantly your Heavenly Father loves you. These things we bless you with in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
I've been terrible about getting a photo of you girls in your blessing dress. Eisley, you wore the same dress I used for Kaybree. Our Relief Society secretary gave you both matching bows and bracelets, which I thought was adorable!

Funny quotes

Kaybree: Yesterday I went to the farm with Amy and Tess and we saw baby goats! Me: Cool! Kaybree: Yeah, they were so cute. For Christmas, will you get me two baby goats? Me: Haha, no. Kaybree: Amy said you would! We love Vertuccio farms. We always get a season pass. You're not allowed to go with Amy anymore. We traded in all of your Halloween candy for some cash and went to Target and bought Shopkins. It was awesome! Apparently all the Shopkins have names so we sat around looking at all the Shopkins and looking up their names. This particular group fit a sports theme and came with a locker to keep them in. The locker has a face but it's not an actual Shopkins so it does not have a name. I told you this and you said "Why didn't Jesus give him a name?!" I laughed for a long time. Added Nov. 16: I felt bad originally posting this because I didn't have any quotes from Eisley. It's not that you're not funny too, you just usually make...

Advice for my girls

By Brendon
So I have never written on this blog before, but I feel like I should start doing so. Girls, I don't know if you will ever read any of this, but I hope you do, so that you can see how much your mother and I love you. Mom always talks about you, so I am going to talk about her today and I hope you use the advice I am about to give you to help you know how to be a great mother and wife. This past week, mom and I decided to start carpooling together. We realized that we work pretty close to each other and we were wasting gas by driving separately, so why not cut our gas bill in half and drive together?! It has only been 3 days, but it has been such a great 3 days so far. I am working an hour longer each day than I should be, but it has been so worth it. The reason it is, is because we get to talk to each other. I love talking to your mom. She is filled with wonderful ideas and thoughts. She is passionate, loving, kind and gracious. All these amazing attributes come out even more whe...

The cycle

By
I'm stuck with this constant decision: Give a punishment even though I know it won't work or ignore the problem completely even though I know the result will not be good. It's always about school. For whatever reason you seem to give up when it comes to school. When asked, you are fully committed. But when a challenge comes up, like a teacher you don't quite connect with, you give up. You decide to sleep instead of work. You know it's a mistake. You know you have already failed enough classes to require you to take an additional year of high school (at least). And yet, any time I offer assistance you act like I have no trust in you and you push me away. I don't have any trust when it comes to your school work. You haven't earned it. But I still have hope. I believe you have the capacity. I believe if you apply yourself you could go far. But you don't. And I can't make you. Yesterday you were sent home from school for sleeping in class and giving a...
