Connections...

Connections are an amazing phenomenon.
Many many weeks back - like many of you i am sure - I heard about a particular Supermom named
Stephanie Nielson.
An LDS girl, who in a sense, has & IS, EVERYTHING that i could ever dream of. She is a perfect portrayal of the person, that i have tried to be every single day of my life, since the day i became a mother more then 10 years ago.
The more i have read about her, the more it seems that she 'has it all'. She is a true inspiration. She is happy, loves her life-her family-her adoring husband-children-herself-& the blessings she is surrounded by. most of all, she is happy.

Then tragedy struck.

I have never met Stephanie Nielson in person. So why is it that i am so effected by her and her story? I don't know, I just am.
CONNECTIONS.
- I want with all my heart for her to pull through. I want her to be ok. I want her to continue to be happy. To enjoy her life-her family-her adoring husband-children-herself-& the blessings she is surrounded by. Most of all-i want her to continue to be happy, and to continue to love her perfect life.
Through her example, She has touched me. She has effected my heart. I want to be more like her, and not waste another God given second.
I will be a better person, better mother, better friend, and who knows... I really do hope that maybe even someday, a better wife to my Prince (wherever he might be) - due to Stephanie's colorful and loveable example.

My thoughts and prayers are with you every single day Stephanie & Christian. Keep fighting! Stephanie, We are all waiting for you to wake up & kiss your babies again.

My dear Jodi, Why would you think you are not a good enough Mom,friend,or person? You are every bit as good as Stephanie!
Some people are just lucky in that they were able to reach more people than others when they begin to write,and you are not lacking in that department because you inspire me with all that you are everytime I come here and read what you write about your precious life! My prayers are with her and her family for better tomorrows. And with you so that you may know how special you are too.
Blessings,Flora

Sweet FLora,
In this very moment, there is nothing that i would rather do then be able to wrap my arms around your shoulders and give you the warmest & biggest of hugs! You are a true angel. Thank you for ALWAYS being so encouraging and supportive and so kind. I am SO thankful for YOU!

I truly LOVE my life! It is an absolute blessed life. There are times where it is all i can do in just shake my head and wonder how in the world i got so lucky to receive so much. Each day i do my very best to live up to those blessings. I am So not perfect... and so i try and take every day to improve. I can always be a better Mom, friend & person. Ü That is why i am so thankful for each day that i am given to make those improvements.

Thank you Flora! I count myself so blessed in being the receipiant of your loving kindness. I am thankful for you.
