1. Abbie's sparkly smile with her new sparkly earrings. She got her ears pierced today and I loved to watch her light up every time she told anyone and everyone she knew and showed them how proud she was.
2. Being able to take my kids to get new school shoes and watching each one of them choose just what they wanted. Max was very particular and hasn't stopped telling me thank you all night. He can't wait to wear them.
3. My Grandpa Bowden! He died 3 years ago today and I miss him! He was a great example to me and was such a kind and loving man. I have some great memories of him playing his banjo, going with him to BYU basketball games, going to visit him at his office and always getting a sucker, and our annual girls night out. I love you Grandpa!
4. Getting my visiting teaching done early.
5. Eating good today.

My Greatest Blessing!
My Greatest Blessing!
"Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confussion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow."

Life Motto
"I don't want to drive up to the pearly gates in a shiny sports car, wearing beautifully, tailored clothes, my hair expertly coiffed, and with long, perfectly manicured fingernails. I want to drive up in a station wagon that has mud on the wheels from taking kids to scout camp. I want to be there with a smudge of peanut butter on my shirt from making sandwiches for a sick neighbors children. I want to be there with a little dirt under my fingernails from helping to weed someone's garden. I want to be there with children's sticky kisses on my cheeks and the tears of a friend on my shoulder. I want the Lord to know I was really here and that I really lived." — Marjorie Pay Hinckley
About Me
- Kim
- I feel like the luckiest girl alive! My life is FULL to say the least. I am a busy Mom of 5 incredible kids with whom I am lucky enough to stay home with everyday. I am married to my incredibly good looking husband who makes my life happy. Having a family to love and take care of is the best part of life. I have a feeling that these crazy days will be gone much too quickly, so for now I am trying to soak it all in and find ... JOY in my Journey! I don't want to take for granted the daily blessings that are mine. This graditude journal is my attempt to acknowledge my abudance, to count my MANY blessings, and to find and remember the little things of each day that make me happy.
