I Love Heavenly Father

I am so thankful for the gospel in my life. I am thankful to know who I am and where I came from. I am thankful that I am never alone on this journey.
I have been struggling with planning our next year of homeschool for a while now. I knew that what we did this past year, although we enjoyed it just would not work next year. With Daddy deploying, a move across the country and a new baby coming things had to be simplified.
I dont know why it took me so long to take the issue to the Lord. That is of course what I should have done first! But I eventually got there and you know what happened? Everything fell into place! The right idea's, the right curriculums, everything just came together! =-} I have to laugh when people tell me I must have amazing patience or I must be so good at this or that to homeschool my kids. Honestly Its not me. I only get thru a day, no scratch that I only get thru any given hour becayse of my Heavenly Father and His strength and His love and His mercy.
I am so glad to know that really He is in charge of this crazy journey that we are on =-}

The mom curse!







Any woman who has a mom knows about the "mom curse". I am sure you all can quote it with me!



" I hope your child turns out just like you!" Well I have been fairly lucky with my first to boys. I must admit I had been lulled into a false sense of security! Surely I had escaped the curse.



Oh No! I didnt escape it at all. I had a daughter, and now I know why the curse is uttered by every mom in the universe! Although my Darling little girl is only 19 months old I have already cursed her with the "mom curse"!!

Princess Dalasha Jr.




My family likes to laugh and tell me about when I was little. They say I used to put a shirt on my head and pretend it was my hair and I was Called Princess Dalasha. up until now I wasnt really sure if I believed them. you'd have to know my family to understand! They like to poke fun and sometimes I think they make it all up after all I am fairly close to perfect! Well, all my doubts were squashed today when my daughter came toddling out of her bedroom with a pair of P.J pants. she proceeded all by herself to sling them on her head and run around with them there! Its Princess Dalasha Jr.
