It is the end of August.....I registered the kids for school this week.........Griff and Austin have been practicing football for weeks......Austin's first game is tonight and Griff's is next Thurday.....but the temperature is near 100 degrees everyday! Everything adds up to fall and football except the temperature. I am very excited to start football season. I have to insert a little story here:
One day in Sacrament Meeting, Brother Hill got up to bear his testimony. He said that he had been talking to a friend at work that was married with no children. The friend and his wife had chosen not to have children because they loved to do things together outdoors, especially to climb mountains. They had just climed a big mountain that took a lot of training and that was a huge accomplishment. The friend told
Brother Hill how wonderful it was to stand on top of the mountain with his wife and know that they had reached a very hard goal. Brother Hill listened and then said, "Do you know what would feel 100 times better than that?" His friend excitedly said, "No what!" Brother Hill said, "Watch your child do it."
Is that so true! I love to watch my children partcipate in activities they love and accomplish goals that that work so hard to achieve. Whether it's sports, school, scouts, etc. They all have amazing talents and they are amazing children.....I am so BLESSED!
