Others' blogs

I just finished reading Amanda's and kristina's blogs. they live in Arizona now. Amanda was just another one of my kids. She is happily married and doing great. I miss her.
Her sister Kristina haas a very busy life full of kids and all sorts of happenings. Reading her blog and facebook always brings a smile to my face and so causes me to want to be a better mom, wife, and friend.
Lindsey is another one I love to follow, she has touched my life and has made my life richer for her being a part of it. She lives in Salt Lake and I miss her-even though I have only been able to see her a couple of times after her mission-her influence continues to be a part of my life.
I love all these awesome ladies and I wish I could hopefully touch someone's life like they have touched mine.
Can you believe that my Brinae is a senior this year??? She is doing great in her schoolwork-she does it all on the computer and her teachers live in all parts of the country-Alaska, Nevada, Virginia, California,etc. We joined the homeschool group so she is on yearbook staff and student council. She is getting ready to take her ACT so she can apply to BYU Idaho! One of her reasons for going there is they have heated sidewalks!!!!
Josh is in grade nine. He does not like school-no big surprize there!! He still has to do it though. He is so funny and reminds me of Donnell so much.
Donnell is working full time and going to school full time. He is getting all A's, but he is so tired. I am so proud of him. He loves programming, he really feels like it is his niche.
I have been doing ok-struggling with myself on so many levels. I love my life, but sometimes I feel like I am not doing a 100% in any of my "jobs". I desire to do better and am working on it. I guess life is always a work inprogress-hey that is a good title for a layout~~
Love to all
