Name:
Location: Utah, United States

I'm a very blessed woman married to my absolute favorite person, Mark. He and I have been best friends for 18 years, were high school sweethearts, and now have 10 children blended together. I'm a quite passionate person. I like ice cream straight from the carton, thinly sliced cheese, fresh fruit, cereal late at night, homegrown garden tomatoes, and turkey alvacado sandwiches. Dancing in the kitchen, singing out loud in the car, wrestling around with my children, playing charades, watching any performance whether art or sport my children are involved with, cuddling with Mark, and reading a good book, soaking in a hot bath are my favorite things to do. It's my joy to be in a partnership with Mark in parenting so many wonderful children and in walking through life together as his wife. It is my passion to advocate for women in the pregnancy, childbirth, lactation, and childrearing stages of life. It is also a joy to ally myself with the Shaklee Corporation in promoting optimal health for persons and our planet. Bottom line is: I'm blessed! I'm happy!

Sleeping Baby

Mykayela, our baby, loves to crawl around and get into things...especially her brother and sisters' projects and toys.

Today, like every other day, she was crawling around while we were all busy doing our various projects and chores. Gabriel decided she needed to go to sleep, so he picked her up, carried her to my bedroom, put her on my bed, covered her up with a sheet and walked out.

I laughed a little, as did the two oldest children, Catelynn and Tyler, as we watched. Gabe heard us and turned to look at Mykayela who was sitting up smiling. He then, turned back to us and said, "She's hard to put to sleep." LOL

Tyler laughingly said, "You didn't even try."

Catelynn responded, "Yeah, Gabriel."

He goes back over to Mykayela, places her on her back, recovers her, walks away, turns back go witness his progress to see that she's still awake.

This repeats five or six times, then he just shakes his head and goes up the stairs.

It's been several hours and we have no sleeping baby.
