Jacob requested a copy of one of my bridal pictures to put on his nightstand and in the process
of making that possible, I've thought a lot about this photo. This is many years, many children
and many pounds ago for sure. I've come out a bit more worn, yet so ridiculously happy. I truly
wouldn't change a thing. These 17 years have given me opportunity after opportunity after
opportunity to work hard at becoming the person I promised my Heavenly Father I would
become. I'm so thankful I get to succeed and fail and keep trying. Mostly, I'm just so
deeply grateful to have spent these years being a wife and a mother. I feel so blessed
that those roles have always been enough for me. The Lord is so incredibly kind to me.
