A quick trip

This weekend we went to twin falls. It was a quick trip. So busy I could only take this picture at Shoshone falls. It was fun to see family. We don't get to very much because everyone lives far away. We are poor newlywed newly parents. Need I say more. We did come home  with a sicker daddy, and a sick baby. Equals tired grumpy overworked mommy. I'm grateful for my little family and the small things we can do. I'm glad we are self reliant and have worked hard for the things we have. 

I taught a lesson in young women's about self reliance. It didnt hit me until i was in the middle of my lesson that it took me a while to become that way. I remembered how badly I wanted a baby, and how sad I was when I found out it was going to be a long road to get one. I'm glad we caught it early on so it wouldn't be too late. Thinking back, Carson came at the perfect time. Heavenly Father needed me to be prepared for what was to come. We had some really rough times, and as a couple learn to become self reliant, ask for help, fall on our faces, and feel defeated. I had lived on my own long before I got married, but my parents were usually there to help me out. We had to know howntontake care of our selves before we could take care of a baby. It was after we came out of a big humbling slump to find out we were in fact pregnant. Another humbling experience was not having insurance that covered maternity. Lots of money, and not enough of it. I'm so glad even through the struggles that Carson is apart of my life. He brings more joy than I could possibly imagine. We love him and are humbled that Heavenly Father would trust us with such an amazing little spirit.
