If . . . .

If I gave you all things, how would you appreciate them ?
If I never corrected you, how would you know that I LOVE YOU and want the VERY BEST for YOU ?
If you had all power then how would you learn to depend on me ?
If your life was perfect then what would you need me for ?
If you knew all, how would you know that I will come to your rescue ?
If you never were broken, then how would you know that I can make you whole ?
If you never had a problem, how would you know that I could solve them ?
If you never had any suffering, then how would you know what Jesus went through and how hard his sacrifice for us all was ?
If you never went through the fire, then how would you become pure ?
If you never felt pain, then how would you know that I am a Healer ?
If you never went through difficulties, how would you know that I am a Deliverer ?
If you never had a trial, How could you call yourself an over comer?
If you never felt sadness, How would you know that I am a Comforter ?
If you never made a mistake, how would you know that I am Forgiving ?

Just like raising our own children, our Heavenly Father loves us enough to allow us the experiences in life that will help us to grow, become stronger and teach us.

Even though we can't seem to find all the answers right now, with enough faith I know that my Heavenly Father will guide us.

The most important thing right now is trying to figure out how to stay home with Malorie - for the moment it does not seem financially possible. But we are open and willing to see what the Lord has in store for us. Whatever sacrifice needs to be made we are willing to make it.

Love the bath . . . Hate getting out of the bath

This little girl LOVES taking a bath. She is in her shoes and bar 23 hours a day. So when daddy comes home at night we take it off for one hour and she gets a nice long bath (which she LOVES) and then she gets a nice lotion massage and daddy exercises her feet really well (isn't it awesome to have a daddy that is going to be a physical therapist - lucky Malorie)
But just had to post this cute picture - even though she is crying she is still sooooo cute !!!

Hello July



My mom is helping out and staying with Marge at a hotel this weekend becuase Marge's AC went out. So to keep my mom company and put a smile on Marge's face Trent and I decided to go visit. Trent went swimming with my brothers and Malorie and I stayed up in the room and visited with mom and Marge.
Malorie has a way of putting a smile on everyones face.
Malorie looks super big sitting on Marge's lap, but the reality is Marge is very fail and tiny. But if the one thing at the end of Marge's life that makes her really happy is babies and we sure know how to wake her up and bring a smile to her face.

Mia Hamm Womens Olympic Soccer Player and played on the US team that won the 1996 Olympics was born with clubfoot.
Kristi Yamaguchi was born with clubfoot and underwent serial casting just like Malorie and had shoes and a bar and is now one of the greatest figure skaters in all the world.
