The things I am thankful for this holiday:

1. Eric Woffinden

I am so thankful for a loving husband. I am so thankful to be a mom. I feel so lucky that he works so hard so that I can stay home with our kids. I am thankful that he is patient, especially when we have a house full of everyone else's kids. I am thankful that he helps me to be a better person. I am thankful that he honors his priesthood and that he will give us strength through that priesthood when we need it. I am thankful that Eric supports me in the things I do.


2. Being a mom
3. Sidney

I finally have school pictures for everyone. :) I think they all turned out pretty cute too.

Sidney didn't get her picture done until last period. She also had PE that day. I think she did a pretty good job freshening up.

I cant' believe how old she is starting to look.
Sidney loves school and is a great student. She loves playing her trumpet and is really pretty good at it. She has enjoyed volleyball this season and thinks this might be her game. I am so glad she is willing to try new things.

I am thankful that she is growing up to be a great person. She is concerned for others and try's to do the right thing.

4. Alex
Alex is growing up too. She is such a special girl. She is very talented when it comes to knowing other peoples feelings. She is so compassionate. She also has a talent for making friends. Alex loves to help in the kitchen and she is getting pretty good at cooking.

Alex has a love of fairies. She loves little things and is always draw to the magical side of things.

She also has a love for learning. She has a memory like no other.





5. Braydon
This is the picture that surprised me the most. Braydon is growing up. When I looked at last years picture compared to this years I almost started to cry. All of the little kid features are gone.

Braydon is so excited about life. He works hard and doesn't like to disappoint. I feel so lucky to have a young man like this in my life. He loves so deep and strong. He has a talent for building and creating. He loves the outdoors and sports. He is a fun kid to have around.

6. Hunter

What a cute little kindergartner.

A couple of weeks ago Hunter's teacher called me about a primary lesson. She wanted 6 talents that Hunter has. I thought it was a pretty hard task to put into words.

Hunter loves music and always has. He can pick out a beat with the best of them. He also is very artistic He loves the Titanic, Indiana Jones, and Legos. He loves to build and play. He can be so sweet.


I am so thankful to have each of these beautiful kids in my life. It would not be the same without any of them.

7. I am Thankful for my heritage. My mom and dad did a great job raising a their family. I am so thankful for the things they taught me and for the things my mom teaches me now.

8. I am thankful for food on the table and a house to live in. With life the way it is now I am very thankful to have these things.

9. I am thankful to know I am a child of God. This is actually this months theme in primary. I had never thought about being thankful to know such a thing until I really got studying about it. I truly am thankful to know this and I hope that my children also know this to their very cores.

10. I am thankful to live near the wonderful people here in this area. I have grown so much from the examples of the great people that live here. I feel thankful to be able to work with them at school and at church. Thank you for all of your sweet spirits.
