Thank You

Thank you for all the Flowers!  


As many of you may know Ross and I were pregnant with twins. Last week on the April 13, we lost both the babies to a ectopic pregnancy. We have both been very sad this week, but we have also been very blessed this week. I would like to take this time to count my many blessings.
1. I am still alive.
2. I married the most amazing man.
3. My amazing hero of a mom.
4. Our families who dropped everything to make 13 hour drive to take care of us.
5. Our friends that have sent cards and flowers.
6. All the dinners that the Relief Society brought us.
7.The Gospel of Jesus Christ.
8. The Atonement and it healing power.
9. Friends who have let me cry and cry.
10. My precious princess puppies that cuddle with me.
11. Pain pills
12. Netflix, daytime t.v is really bad.
13. Understanding employers.
14. Daniel's wooden box of candy.
15. The fact that the most recent Harry Potter video came out the day I got out of the hospital.
16. All the emails and Facebook comments I have received.
17. Maxi dresses are fashionable (I can't button my jeans)
18. Books...I am glad I bought some right before I got sick.
19. Mr. Beck and Ms. Wright for helping my sub.
20. Maxi pads. (I am not going to go in detail on this one, but really a huge blessing)
21. My students...I love them all so much.
22. The pants the hospital let me keep.
23. Halley and Nick Whitney
24. My comfortable couches that I lay on all day.
25. Sweets Salt Water Taffy.
26. Dana Sowards.
27. Tiffany Medina
28. My awesome haircut from Salon Rain.
29. Puppy prison, it is where my puppies go when they jump on my tummy.
30. The fact that I was finally able to shave my legs.
31. Lehi Rollermills cookie mix and brownie mix.
32.   Milk of Magnesia
33. Oreo cookies and milk
I am sure there are many more blessings  that I am forgetting right now. I just really wanted to take the time and tell everyone, thank you. We will get through this and we will one day be able to bring our own little baby or babies home.

We love you both so much! You are a blessing to us! You've been a sparkle in my life since I met you. Keep on sparkling my beautiful Jo Vonna. The Lord knows you and will continue to bless you. You know very well that sometimes He makes you take the long way to get where you want to be, but someday you will get there.
