This is the Life

-
I have been doing lots of thinking lately, pondering my life and where its headed. And in doing so I realized that I was overdoing it. No matter what, we can't plan life exactly as we think it should be. It seems that no matter where we are in life, what we have, we look at the things that we don't have or haven't accomplished yet, and just wish that we could be there already and that when it would happen we would be happier or that life would be just a little easier.

So after I realized this, I thought to myself "Why just not make the most of what I have right now?" Why wait for something to happen in order for me to feel happy? Why not just enjoy life as it is right now? I don't know what is going to happen tomorrow, and if I am living for tomorrow, then I am going to miss out on today. So DON"T!! LIVE FOR TODAY!!! :)

I am so grateful for the life and circumstances that I am in right now, that I am married to the most wonderful man ever and that I have the gospel of Jesus Christ to guide me in learning God's will for me, which is what I should be focused on, not what I want. Hard I know, but with God, nothing is impossible.

Hello there to all our family and friends. This is our first blog and we are excited to join all you bloggers out there! Since this is the first post, I thought I would just give a quick summary of our life right now. Roberto and I are currently in Rexburg, Idaho where we are both attending BYU-Idaho. This time of year we are off from school, so Roberto is working, doing landscaping and taking two night classes and I am looking for a job. We have been married for a little over a year and we are loving every moment together. Looking for a job in Rexburg has been tough (I've been looking since July), but in the mean time it has been a great opportunity for me to learn and grow from those around me. Recently I was able to find a temporary position for someone handing out flyers for their new website. Their paying me $50 bucks to do it! So I'm glad it's something. Other than that, I usually visit other people who are home all day, so if you want company, let me know! :) Roberto

I really don't want to talk about this because I feel like a broken record. Some of you may already know about this struggle I am about to spill over about. Why am I writing this? I don't know for sure really. Maybe it's for me. Maybe it's for you. Well, here it goes. Why is the title of my post "2 years ago"? Well, that's because that's how long I've been waiting. That's how long I've been wanting. Yes, I want another child. Why hasn't it happened yet? I'm not sure. A LOT has happened in the past 2 years. My body has gone through A LOT just this past year alone (Addison's). I understand that. Kind of. But it still doesn't change how I feel about having another baby. This past weekend we had Stake Conference (it's a bigger church meeting) and at the Saturday evening session, a woman shared a story about her daughter, who had to wait 11 years to adopt her 2 children and have them sealed to her in the temple. She als
