Life is Sweet and Life is Bitter

This week has been a great and bad week all together. We got great news on our home in Stansbury, Ut. 

It will be completed in 

6 Weeks

I cannot wait to be all settled in. After we got the good news about our new home we got some bad news about our old home that we just moved out of. After being in contract for a little more than 2 months the buyers decided to withdrawal their offer. So now our home is back up on the market and hoping to get it sold in less than 6 weeks! This whole process has been so stressful and yet so amazing. I have to look to the positive things in life as then it makes it so much better. 

Things could be worse, and we are so lucky to not be experiencing the worse life can offer. 

Here's a list of some of my lucky things in life...

1. Having a home over our heads

2. My children

3. My amazing husband who works to provide for us

4. My amazing Mother in Law (who let us turn her house upside down 

bringing in 2 children and a crazy dog)

5. Our family goals and dreams

Many are less fortunate and do not have homes, or cannot have children. Many family's cannot survive with one income and I am so lucky to be able to witness every milestone our children reach. Some may not have family that he or she cannot turn to in times of need, and so cannot create goals or dreams as theirs may have been shattered to many times. Life can be so much worse than ours and through the good and bad in our life, we can still see the bright side and continue to push out of the darkness.

Abagail and Rylee have been hitting some many milestones. Especially Abby, she decided one night she needed to pop out 3 teeth! She now has her two front teeth and one next to it. She has also mastered picking up her play phone and hold it to her ear like she is answering it and the last thing she has mastered is her kisses. (She makes the most adorable smooch face alive!)

Rylee has gone almost 3 weeks wearing big girl panties to bed without an accident. Well one night she had a couple but that is because I forgot what time it was and gave her a huge glass of water 30 minutes before bed! It was along night. 

DUH MOM WHAT DID YOU THINK WAS GOING TO HAPPEN?!

Another accomplishment happened this week when I received my score on the last section of my testing that I had to complete to continue on with my degree. I PASSED with a score of 175 when I needed a 170 to pass. I was preparing myself to take it again and when I saw the score I jumped up screaming and ran through my Mother in Laws house, I could not sleep that night because of how excited I was. I cannot wait to continue on with my degree and finish school.

With all that has been going on I have been having a hard time trying to get the girls back on a schedule. I was so happy today that we actually got up early and we had a great nap time. I really hope that it continues on throughout the weekend and into next week.

When life is sweet, say thank you and celebrate. When life if bitter, say thank you and grow.
