Zaden is 8 Today

This cute little guy is eight years old.  Zaden is a smart child and quite the thinker.  He's funny and creative.  This sweetie loves lego's and video games.  I just read a memory of last year when I took Zaden shopping.  He chose something with tiny pieces as his gift.  Not lego's but something similar.  When he got home and opened the package and saw all the little pieces he looked at me and asked me why I had let him get them. ☺  Zaden is kind and a very good big brother.  He loves to watch movies and play on the computer.  He likes his back rubbed.  Zaden is a good dancer and can really shake things up when he wants.  Zaden has a strong personality and knows what he wants and isn't easily persuaded which I admire.  Zaden is such a blessing to our family.  Last night I was laying in his bed with him (his mom and TJ were working on the other house to get it ready to sell) and we were talking.  I told him he was the best thing that has ever happened to his dad.  I let him know that he truly was a blessing to us all.  This little guy is great fun and we are so blessed to have him.

Temple

I absolutely love going to the Temple every week.  I really enjoy doing sealings.  I always feel the spirit!  Today we noticed a few things that happened that usually don't.  Every once in awhile things are different. ☺ Today the sealers were rotating out of the room.  That has never happened in the year I have been going.  We usually get three sealers who stay with us the entire hour but today at two different times we had sealers come in and one would leave.  

The only names I remember today were Mrs. Potts and Lulu.  They both made me smile.  Our room started out with a lot of people but ended up with just us from Hooper.  (4 gals and 2 guys)  We did a few sons today as well as daughters.  On one rotation it could have been my turn to be a wife but Brother Tanner (the sealer) called up another sister and said he would save me to be a daughter again because I was their favorite daughter.  That seriously made me smile.  I love being the daughter.  I think it's because of my experience being sealed to my parents.  It was a glorious morning!
