LIVE Life to the Fullest!: Mothers Day 2009

Today was the most beautiful day! I woke up to 6 little kids all in bed with me giving me the best tickles and back rubs and playing with my hair. They know this is the greatest gift of all. I opened my homemade presents and loved them so much. They are the best kind of gifts. We decided to take a "Thomas Rest Day" and skipped church to go get lunch and have a picnic at the park. This was so much fun, the weather was perfect. We finished planting and had some friends over for a fun bbq out back. This day was almost perfect!!!

One of my favorite poems written by my 13 year old Allyson

Where I am From

I am from ballet shoes, from Gambas and Blocks.

I am from the chaos of six kids and the joy it brings.

I am from the roses and all the crazy wild flowers in my grandma's garden.

I am from the cinnamon scent on Christmas and hazel eyes from dad, and fun personality from mom and dad.

I am from extreme adventure, and lots of fun, from "be yourself because life is too short to be anyone else," and

be kind to everyone you meet, because you may not know their story."

I am from the religion of love, service, and never judge another person.

I am from SLC, Utah, veggies and homemade wheat bread,

I am from the family of miracles, and happiness of having our dad with us here today because when he broke his neck he could have died.

I am Allyson Brooke Thomas

Quote of the Day

"Two men stood and looked out the prison bars. One saw the dirt, the other saw the stars."

Life is all how you look at it, When we lived in Nevis we would always have so many little things go wrong...Like with the house we were renting, or the black outs at night that would scare me. Or when the stores would all close at 3 or 4 in the afternoon. It went on and on. Living on a tiny island had many trials. John would always say to me..."IT IS ALL PART OF THE EXPERIENCE BABE" That has become our Motto. It is all part of the experience. Life is a grand experience that we learn and grow from if we allow that to happen. Life is beautiful.

LIVE Life to the Fullest!
