Love, Love, Love

I’m blessed with a husband who loves me – a daughter who loves me – a Savior who loves me – a family who loves me… The word love is thrown around all too carelessly in today’s society. Many people don’t understand what love means – what real love is. They don’t know the beauty of unconditional love, pure love.

The x-rays look good even though all the metal “bling” that he’s now sporting is crazy. The doc says that he should make…

We’ll work on some handmade gifts for Christmas and…
