I Love my Wife and Kids

This weekend was the UEA weekend. Emily, Ellie, and Trevor went to St. George and spent Saturday, Sunday and Monday with Emily's dad. I couldn't go with them because I had some Stake YM meetings that I was in charge of on Sunday. I've always known that I love Emily and the kids immensely, but I came to another realization...I hate being away from my family for any amount of time. I've gone out of town for business trips before, and I've hated being away from them then. However, this time, I literally felt sick the whole time. Sunday, after church, i couldn't focus on anything. I just wanted them to be home...but I knew they were having fun visiting Grandpa Greg and Grandma Janet.

I love Emily more than anything in this world! She is my Angel...as Elder Holland expressed in this last conference. She is the most wonderful and beautiful wife; and I often feel that I haven't done nearly enough to deserve her.

Ellie is a beautiful, feisty little 5 year old and, thinking about it, I wouldn't have it any other way. We definitely have our work cut out for us as she grows.

Trevor is such a soft hearted little kid. The way he says "I love you too" is awesome.

I'm so blessed!!!! Just wanted to express it.

We loved having Em and the kids down south. I never get tired of the laughter and conversation when Emily is around. I love how helpful Ellie is and Trevor had a very dignified little personality. He was so cute at the lake playing with Little Logan. How cute of a family!
Brian, you are lucky and so are they!
