How life changes...

I have been having a hard time lately. I usually talk to my friend Laurie, but she passed away 15 months ago. I do have other friends, but I feel like their lives are so busy it would be unfair to burden them. So here I sit feeling the need to just unload.

These past two years have been really hard financially. One day you have a house the next you have to short sell it. One day you have rent money the next you have $20. It has put a lot of stress on the family. It is a hard time to find a job and that doesn't help either.

One day your husband goes to help at your parents house and is there for 3 minutes and has a tree branch fall on his head. It has been six months. He has changed in ways that I go to bed angry at him. I can not get over my anger. I cry and try to understand why he is doing things the way he feels they should be done. The little changes have made big issues in our marriage. I have been mad at him, but not like this. It's like I am mad at another person. I am trying to understand what he is doing and saying. I know he has a brain injury. I feel like I need to get to know him again. I love this man so much! I see him laughing with the kids and I think there he is and I want to hold on to it. It's not all bad, just different. He cries when he realizes that he is different and feels like he is letting us down. I know we will find a way to fix this it will just take time.

I'm not writing this to get the pity vote of the week. I am writing this to thank my Heavenly Father for my blessings. I have a beautiful family. The best ever. I feel he is waiting for me to make it through this challenge and move on to the next. An Eternal Family is worth working for. I have a loving husband. He loves me and tells me all the time. We know it will take time, but we will make it through together. I do know Heavenly Father loves me. I am grateful for his love every night as I pray myself to sleep. I am also grateful to all my friends. I have so many wonderful people in my life.

I thank you all for letting me unload. I love you all!

Happy Anniversary!

I always forget our Temple anniversary. It is important and I don't know why we both do it. We got a card in the mail today from my Mom and Chet asked me why. I had to think. I remember that day with sadness and with hope. I remember being sealed to Chet, then my Mom held Nate as he was being sealed to us. Outside the Temple Chet Michael and Chelsie were waiting with Chet's family. I knew that I was laying the foundation and hoped that I could complete it with having all my children sealed to Chet and I. That was July 11, 1987. We now have finished our foundation by having all our children sealed to us, December 15, 2000. I remember how we faced each other. I remember the boys watching. I felt complete. Where there was a small separation, the gap had been closed. As a little girl I had always wanted to be married in the Temple. When we were not able to, we started to make plans. Just less than 2 years later was our special day. I have three very special anniversaries. August 3, 1985 the day I married my best friend. July 11, 1987 the day I married my best friend in the Temple. December 15, 2000 the day we were finally a family forever.
