Happy to be a Mom!

I love this thought from President David O. McKay

"She, who can paint a masterpiece or write a book that will influence millions -- deserves the admiration and the plaudits of man. But she who rears a family of beautiful sons and daughters, whose influence will be felt through generations to come, long after paintings have faded, and books have been destroyed she deserves the highest honor that man can give, and the choicest blessings of God. In her high duty and service to humanity, she is co-partner with the Creator himself."

Pay Check!


We got our first paycheck today! It is the first paycheck we have gotten since before Spencer was born over 3 1/2 years ago, so yea we are a little excited!


So we figured out that this wonderful paycheck which covered the last two weeks of work is more money than we made during the entire year of MBA school- proven by tax return that year, which at the time was so pathetic that all we could do was laugh about it.

So nice to have an income again, and it was well earned Devin worked from 8am-10pm Mon and Tuesday, left at 6:30am on Wed and did not come home until Thursday morning at 11am (he had to pull an all nighter on the second week of work) but got a 1/2 day off on Thursday, and then Friday worked 8am-midnight. Talk about yuck, we are hoping it will get a little better as he gets trained and gets faster. So paycheck well earned.
