My little boy?




Here are a few pictures of Jared. Where did my little boy go? He got taller and taller, and more and more independant. Let me give all of you young mothers, or mothers of little children some advice- Enjoy them at each time of their lives! First they are infants with darling smiles and funny noises, then toddlers with lightning fast hands and tight hugs, then kids that want you to read to them and go places with them and be their mom at school functions, then they are teenagers and DON'T want you anywhere near them because you are embarrassing, then young adults who don't live close to you, and you don't hear from them unless there is a problem, then they are adults who are married and have their own children....Where did the time GO?


These pictures are of Jared with Madison (Ashley's baby girl) and in his usual attire while working on one or more of the cars in our yard. (as of today, there are 16....I am not jumping up and down with delight....)

Anyway, enjoy the pictures!

Stu and I went to the Seattle Temple today for a ward temple trip. We went by ourselves, and had a great time! I enjoy going through Edmonds, and thereabouts to see the "old neighborhood", and then we went to the temple- saw several people I know, like Jane Duffy, who works in the clothing distribution center; Heather Leishman, who works at the temple, and 3 other couple friends of ours, the Walters, McFarlands, and Mitchells, who helped us do sealings for some of Stu's ancestors. It was a nice day. I even got to play the organ for our little meeting before the session. I enjoy doing that.

We stopped in Federal Way on the way home and ate at "Black Angus". It was yummy. The trip home was interesting. We have had snow yesterday and today. There was an accident on the hill going up over past Pt . Townsend- some young guys in an SUV thought they were "invincible" and rolled their vehicle. They looked o.k. What is this? Snow in April? Here is a picture of that, too. Notice there are hardly even LITTLE buds on this tree. Poor Yard!

till later!

Yah- I am told that they grow quick, and when they get older the parent wishes they enjoyed the child's youth more. Because of this I TRY to enjoy everday with Harrison, though at times I want to pull my hair out.
