Today...

Addie asked me if we could make Old Maid bread together. I couldn't help but drop everything and just hold her in my arms. As much as I feel like I missed this last year of her life...I am so grateful for those moments that remind me she is still my LITTLE girl. So I think we will make "homemade" bread.

I made some of it too but her's was 100% better because she used fresh ground flour and fresh yeast. it.http://homecookinginmontana.blogspot.com/2010/01/peter-reinharts-100-whole-wheat.html; March 5, 2011 at 9:30 AM

I've learned...

I learned to NEVER take our bodies or our health for granted. I have been reminded that trials are more bearable if we meet them cheerfully. I know that the Lord truly does hear and answer our prayers. I have been reminded how precious life is...and how important it is that we use our time wisely. Cherish those moments that matter, love those around you, don't let the distractions of the world take your eyes off what matters most, don't put off the important things thinking you'll have time to do them later, and take time to smile and count your blessings each day! (and know that you can make a difference in someones life...as you have made a huge difference in mine. Thanks for taking the time to share in our journey!)
