I love fall weather. It has been much cooler here the past few days and I am lovin' it! The kids have pryed themselves away from the video games to play outside with their friends, and I feel like I want to open all my windows and clean my house! (I said feel like, let's not get too crazy now!) I am starting to come down off the crazy juice and though my new meds are making me sleep alot, it is a welcome change from feeling like I'm on legal speed.
Saturday night I went to the temple with my sister Sarah. It was a really good and much-needed experience. We kept talking about how we didn't want to leave the peaceful feeling we felt there but my intense, ever-growing craving for a burrito got us up and on the road. (But not before a sweet sister who happened to know me and my scatter-brained ways had to search the laundrey room for fifteen minutes for my recommend that went down the laundrey chute in the pocket of my dress!)
Then, Sunday was our Primary Program. I love those kids so stinkin' much! They are so beautiful and wonderful and flawless in all their flaws! They make me feel loved no matter how much I'm hatin' on myself! Could there be a better calling than in Primary? I think not!
I feel like change is in the air. Not just me getting well, er-- I mean well-medicated (there is a difference! But perfection is not the goal here!) But inner changes too. I know the Lord is willing to take me as far and high as I'll let him. Here's to me letting him. Finally!

I am so glad you are doing better. The Lord knows what he is doing I guess. The primary kids love you because you love them. You are awesome.
Yay for you! I like your new background. Now I'm changing mine.
The primary program was wonderful-- I loved every second of it. I can't wait to be a mommy watching my kids yell into the microphone.
I need a trip to the temple... haven't been in a while with bedrest & all. We should go as a girl's trip one evening.
I love changes in the weather, too. It makes me feel like a new woman. And then I realize it is just the same ol' me.
I'm glad you are feeling better. I have to confess that hunger usually boots me out of the temple, too. I wish I was closer and could do a session with you and your sisters.
Liz, I found your blog, and I hope you don't mind. The primary program was so cute! I am so excited to get to know those kids! You do an amazing job with them. I agree with Alisha that would should all get together for temple/dinner night.
I love you hear that you struggle and grow, struggle and grow....just like me! I am glad that you are feeling the love of the Lord in your life. What a blessing. And BTW, isn't fall the best season ever??
Liz, when I come to see your blog and check on how you're doing I get that song "cha cha cha changes" stuck in my head.... I go around singing it... the rest of the day or night.. whichever it is.. it is catchy, hee hee... I have so loved how nice it's been.. my kids like being outside and I even like hanging out outside, too! I love Fall.. the weather, the colors, etc.. it's awesome.
You're the Best!!!!

I have 2 cats and 2 guinea pigs you can come pet! A party sounds more fun, though!
