Busy, Busy

Potty training is going great, Glenn is teething, so fussier than his usual self, and Mere is always a ball of energy, but we've been doing a lot more walking, so that's tiring her out some before she sleeps. Mere can count to 10 and know some numbers after, so it's fun to hear her count. She is into ice cream and cupcakes and asked to read the "cupcake book" from the library which has cupcakes on a couple pages and she thinks it's great. She is also learning colors, and sometimes gets them right :) We had the 2 year old check up and 6 month old check up Glenn is 20lbs 11 oz ___ tall, Mere is ____ and 33 1/2 inches tall. (I have to double check that).

I've been very busy this year, but had some time to contemplate things. Saki is doing wonderful work with the scouts and young men at church and I'm really enjoying doing sharing time in primary with the young children. I am so grateful for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and the guidance the gospel brings to my life. We live in a world of disintegrating moral values and people floundering to find a purpose in life and I am so grateful for the knowledge of a Heavenly Father who loves all of His children and that He sent His Son to atone for us. I am enjoying reading the church magazines the Friend to Mere and the Ensign. I am so grateful for the humanitarian aid the church sends to other countries and the way it blesses each member in the world wherever they live. I am so grateful for my husband and the priesthood he worthily holds and parents who raised me up to the Lord and brothers who have set wonderful examples for me. Well, I really need to get going, just wanted to do a quick post, and note this wonderful site: https://beta.lds.org/youth?locale=eng

love to all, eliz

Oh you just reminded me I need to get the twins in for their 2 year check up. Mere is learning a lot. The twins just count to 2 right now. I think girls pick things up faster than boys. Hazel was counting and knew her colors and other stuff at this age but the boys prefer to just play.
