I stayed home for them.....US.
Party of Six!
{I can't believe it took us until Easter to get our first family photo with the babies.}
And, a big huge heartfelt thank you to all of you for your sweet, kind and supportive comments about my decision to stay home. You all strengthened me....and made me teary-eyed.

Just catching up on your blog this morning.
ReplyDeleteYOU are an incredible mom. What a beautiful sacrafice you have made for your family. Proud of you for making such a hard desicion.
Hope your Thursday is going good!
It was worth the wait becuase it is - I mean, ya'll are GORGEOUS!!!!! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm behind on my blog reading and was so excited when I read you would be at Thanksgiving Point, but I'm even more glad you are doing what is best for you and your family. Let me tell you what (and your probably starting to see this with Kaia), the time we have all of our children with us, under one roof, is soooooo short. I have a quote from President Hinckley pinned that reads, "You will come to know that what appears today to be a sacrifice will prove instead to be the greatest investment that you will ever make". As moms we sacrifice a lot for our families, but I would rather sacrifice than live to regret that I didn't make those sacrifices. Blake and Little Miss (and all of you!) will be in my prayers. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteApril, I'm sure you'll have pangs this weekend of tinges of regret. A week. A month. A year. You'll be glad you made this choice. Brave choice.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful picture!! I had to catch up, haven't been by in WAY too long! :( So happy to hear that you are at peace with your decision. I couldn't agree more about what you will remember in five yrs etc. There will always be another conference, market, etc. but there will not always be these times and memories that your family needs you for! :) I try to tell myself the same thing when I'm SO done with toys & messes everywhere..there will be a day when it will be gone and I will miss it!
