Springing through life

Spring has sprung



Few months have past sense I wrote last and allot has been going on. I'm super busy running around and trying to keep up on it all. I have to say my house is were I'm lacking. The laundry is always piling up and the dishes wait for me each day. This last  year Kim and I said too each other we have made it one year almost w/ out a surgery for Andy. Wow did we choke on our words. soon after Andy started getting sick and having terrible headaches and dizzy spells his eye sight got worse and he was bumping into things more than before. He was throwing up almost every day for months and we thought it must have been from his meds. Well one day he came home from school kinda fell down the stairs of the bus and was complaining his head hurt and when Andy tells you he hurts you know it must really hurt. So I watched him and got nervous like most times when he doesn't feel well knowing something is up. He started throwing up every time he would move or sit up. I thought he was having some returning conditions from past brain surgery or a brain bleed. He asked his dad for a priesthood blessing and then Andy and I got in the car and I took him to the hospital. No brain bleed no returning condition but he had fluid up in his sinus area and we had treated him for a infection when we saw this on a past CT scan but one year later it was still there. Sinusitis it was so bad that it was eroding through the frontal lobe and was in his blood stream. So we had another surgery shortly after they cleaned it all out and created a sinus drainage where there wasn't one. He is doing great and was a champ like all the surgery's before. When his Moga AKA grandmother called to see how he was he said I'm great! how are you? LOL. He is such a sweet boy always trusting in the Lord and never wavering in his faith in him. Three months later we find our  he needs another eye surgery they were going in to reconstruct the muscles so his eyes were strait and this would help his alinement and vision. This surgery was also a less stressful and scary surgery it was only a few hours and all went well. Some parents help build there children's testimony buy telling them what they need to believe or what they believe to be true. I know I teach my boys what I believe and hope and pray they will have there own testimony someday. But Andy is different in the sense that he has always had a testimony and only reminds me and reassures me that it is all true and that our father in Heaven truly loves us and we are not alone in this life. Surely someone that has had so many struggles and hurdles to jump would waver but he never does. His faith is solid and sure. When this child shares his testimony you can feel the love and kindness our father has for us. I'm truly blessed to be a mother of such wonderful children. I know from the outside looking in it looks messy and loud and wild and crazy. And I can say, yes it is all those things and more. It is sweet and peaceful, rewarding and exciting. I love being a mom and on the days I feel like I'm "just a mom" I try to remember that I'm getting the education that was meant for me and I'm learning the most important things that are so hard to learn that's why we raise our children because it isn't a degree it takes a life time to accomplish. And today I'm happy I'm a mom and that Caleb and Andy and Nathan belong in our family and that God is sharing them w/ us for a short time how ever long that may be.

Stay tune theirs more to come.............

The close of 2011

Wow can you believe this year is already over? I guess when you have such a busy life time fly's right by. This year has been filled with good, bad, ugly, and worse. Thank goodness for all of these or we would never see the blessings we truly have right in front of us each day.

This year we have had two surgery's in our home and many Dr.s apt's like every year but now we have not only Andy to thank for that but Nathan as well. His Asthma has hit an all time high this year and he has been in and out of the hospital all year. The Dr.s have looked for lung disease and immune system disorders and can't really understand why it is so difficult to get his asthma under control. I guess Idaho air just isn't what it's made out to be. LOL So right now we treat him and have lots of E.R visits and pray he will grow out of it.

Our year has also been filled with Kim graduating from BSU w/ a Bachelor of science medicine. He has worked hard for a long time achieving this goal and can I say while working full time at the hospital taking a full load in school and Army on the side and church callings. Kim is the hardest working man I know and we as a family are so thankful for this and how hard he works to provide for us.

We also gave our dog away to another home this summer because of Nate's Asthma and this was so hard for especially me. Harley was my dog for 6 years which for a great Dane is a life time.

Caleb has turned 10 this year and is growing so fast I can't keep up with his clothes. He is in a size 12 or 14. He loves School and is getting good grades he also after years of begging his father and I got a lizard. If any boy deserves it it's Caleb what a good boy he is.

Andy has just turned 8 this last week and is so excited to be baptized as a member of The church of Jesus Christ of Later day saints. If you were at Caleb's baptism two years ago you know Andy was so upset to not be able to be baptized yet he got half way into the water himself. Now it's finely his turn and he is thrilled.

Nathan turned 5 this summer and that was a big change for all of us. He started going to KG three days a week full days and loves it. He does hate riding the bus so we are still working on this area. but the also is passing Andy up in mile stones and is helping Andy learn things wich is nice and difficult sometimes because Andy notices his little brother can do it and he can't. It is a blessing though that Nate is so willing to be patient and kind to Andy and teach him along as he learnes as well. This is just one of the many reasons we love our little nater Tater.

We are so thankful for all that we have been blessed with this year. We are thankful for the hard times so we can more fully see the great blessings we may not always see and notice. And we are waiting to see what next year brings our way. So bring it on...

November 11-
2011

Wow allot has
happened in just a few months time. There really is little quiet time around
our house. We have come to realize that if we have enjoyed a few months of slow
and quiet that it is only a matter of time till the storm comes our way. Not as
a bad thing but we have learned that God only gives us so much time to catch
our breath and then says okay Wilson family pick up your boot straps lets go
again.

We have had a
few too many surgeries in our home this year. J
But on the good note we made it 10 months without any operations for Andy. That
is a record for that little boy. Andy has had an operation every year sense he
was born. We thought we were going to make it a year without but didn’t end up
that way. And we are pretty sure he is going to have another in January. So
again on the bright side we meet our family deductable right away for the year.
J

I have also
had some health struggles and had the opportunity to have my gallbladder out a
few weeks ago. Pretty sure God put in us for a purpose not sure what but hopefully
I won’t miss it. So far I don’t. I also had the opportunity to have my sister
in-law Chelsea come and stay a week while I was down to help take care of my
children and me while Kim was working. It was so nice having her here I wish it
was for different reasons but the boys loved it and loved seeing baby Ari there
newly adopted cousin.

So I have so
much to tell but so much to also be thankful for in this close of our year. I
will be 30 this New Year and I have seen and done and heard much in my 30 short
years and I hope I see and do even more in the next 30 years. I want to travel
to Mexico and Hawaii and New Zealand also Florida again and Virginia New York
and Italy. I want to go to Australia and a few others but this gives you an idea
of what I want to see J
Things I want to do this next year, I want to
ride a century bike ride 100 miler. I want to backpack with my boys and husband
to redfish lake and would love to backpack through somewhere like Mexico. I
would like to loose twenty lbs. and run a few races while I’m at it.

My Boys Caleb
Andy and Nate are all in school this year and I thought it would be so peaceful
and relaxing at home and our house would be cleaner but not true at all. With
three boys I get calls all the time from the teachers or the counselor or the
principal himself. Here are just a few of the most recent examples.
Mrs. Wilson your son was splashing on another
child in the bathroom urinal; my youngest just learned what a urinal was this
year.
Mrs. Wilson we
caught your son urinating outside behind a tree by the play ground.
Mrs. Wilson
can you come and help with your child he wet his pants.

THING IS THESE
ARE ALL DIFFERENT CHILDREN SEEMS WE HAVE A PEE PROBLIME J what
to do what to do.
Today we had
no pee problems and I was so happy.
I potty
trained each my boys before they were even two I guess the outside method is
coming back to haunt me.

So life has
been great at our end and we are so thankful for all we have been given we know
we are blessed we would be ungrateful to complain so we try to smile and keep
on a movingJ

SUMMER FUN

Summer has come and it has GONE!

It has been a wild summer this year. It started off with family coming out our ears which is always good and well sometimes not. LOL We had most of Kim's family this summer for one reason or another and like always enjoyed it while it lasted.

We traveled to UT for a Reunion in August and had a good time with my family it had been a year sense I saw them all together. The greatest news this summer is that my little brother Franz and his beautiful wife Chelsea had there little girl Arianna sealed to them in the Draper temple for time and eternity. It was such a great and beautiful memory to share with them.

we also had the pleasure to visit Kim's parents in Idaho Falls this last week and see most of the family as well. That was a bit much at times and yet wonderful life is so funny that way.

The million $$$$$ question. Have we found anyone to adopt yet?

We are working on the adoption process. It is overwhelming at times and seems unkind. We know that she or they are out there we know it won't be much longer not sure how we know that but we just do. We know there are certain little spirits out there and waiting to be in our family. Boy are they in for a ride... Anyway we are excited to find them and can't wait the process of bringing them in our home and our hearts.

Well this will have to do for now till I have a few more mins to write about our children and what everyone has been up to. Till next time

God bless.

The little things in Life

So The summer has come and gone. School has started and my last one at home is off to Kindergarten and I am thrilled. Wha-hooo You heard me, there was No crying at the bus stop or asking myself what I was going to do all day. I have had this day planned for a while now. Don't get me wrong I love being a full time stay at home mom. But I have never had a day care or a regular sitter or preschool in almost 10 years. So when this day came I new just what I would do with all my time.

I would date my husband again

so 8:00am the house is clear of kiddos and it's quiet and so Kim Mowed the lawn and I cleaned the kitchen up from breakfast. I did some laundry and 10:00 comes and go's I get dressed and Kim finished the yard and washing the little car. We desided to go on a date. We went to a 11:30 lunch and then shopping at Sports authority and than Walmart and held hands and checked our blood pressure at the Pharmacy and it was nice.

Our boys are growing so fast and I'm okay with that sure it go's by fast and I loved them as baby's but there turning into Young men and that is because of Kim and I we did that and I love watching the progress they make and how there personalities grow. We are so blessed to have each other.

Each morning we kneel in our living room together as a family and we thank our father in heaven for the blessings he has given us and we ask him for things we need. I listen to my boys and often times cry thinking what strong spirits they are. Andy asks each morning to please help him do the things that are hard for him and to not be tempted to be angery. How many of us ask for these small things and yet so justified. How many of us thank Him for helping our cars not crash or not have a stranger hurt us. I love how this little person thanks fim for things he needs before he even asks him for it. It's as if his faith will carry it through and he knows so he is five steps ahead and already thanking him for it. I pray I can be more like this and I thank God for all my beautiful children and my loving husband.

A Little Faith Go's A Long Way

There has been allot on my mind these weeks. I have noticed that the more you reach out in this life the more people stare and wonder and are just curious I think.

Kim and I have a what you could call exciting, fast passed, usually out of the norm, educational life. Not to say if your life isn't like ours it is boring. But there have been a many days I am wondering what it will be like to have that so called boring feeling. For years we have traveled from here to there and have met new people and left old friends. We have been in the military and have traveled from one end of the US to the other and loved all places we have been. We have been just plane broke at times in our life to finely being able to make all the bills and some. We have worked in the hospital and lived in the hospital. We have had a few close calls with certain children. We have had health problems and loss of loved ones. We have gone days with living in the same house but not seeing eachother due to school full time and working in the medical feild.

But life has never forgot us or left us alone in the dark. God has been there each step of the way we have counted on him for love and support and guidance. We are thankful for the struggles we have faced thus far and because of them know we can get through anything that blows our way. Because we are not alone and I believe he has a plan and we are part of it how boring life would be if we sat idley by and watched the crash of the wave go by. I for one am thankful to have road it and crash a few times to know the thrill and feeling it is to get up and try again and know the magnitude of such power.

Life is a ride but you have to get on don't sit and watch it go by grab your rain boots and get a little wet. And do a little good today.

LIFE CHANGING..........AGAIN

So as you may know Kim and I are adding to our family. We are very excited about it and have been waiting for the right time to do so now for a few years. Well the time is here and we are adopting a girl/girls which ever it may be. We are thrilled and nervous for it to take place. So now that the paper work and leg work of it all is finished and we have completed our home study we are beginning to look for the rest of our family. It is a big world but we know Heavenly Father knows right were she is. So we are going to be patient and trust in him. Some of you may think wow more children after what they have now. These two are crazy, rest assured yes we are. But we are so happy to have this opportunity. We are adopting out of the foster system so we know there is going to be some challenges and we say bring it on...We fill we have been trained for this moment for years and that so much of what we have gone through and are going through has been for this reason and this we are thankful for. I know our daughter is out there waiting for us to find her and i already feel a love for this spirit I have yet to meet in this life. Well I just wanted to share our good news with all those who are interested. wish us luck on our journey...Till we meet again

Lifes full of blessings

Well time is flying by, I can't believe school will be out in a few short months and that my youngest will be starting school this fall. I'm so thrilled about it. I also can't wait for the tulips to pop up and the grass to turn green and to start weed whacking and mowing the grass again. I love spring time.

Kim has finished his Military application for the P.A program. physician Assistant. He would start in the spring or summer of 2012 which means we would be moving back to San Antonio Texas. There are mixed feelings. We love it here in Idaho and I can't believe I would ever come to that point. But this would be the hardest move in 11 years time and we have moved allot. but we will be back some day.

We are working on the adoption process still and getting so close. It is hard to believe we will be adding more to our family. We are so thrilled! I guess we just don't have enough going on already. :) Life is funny that way but we know we are in good hands.

We have been so blessed over the 10 years of our marriage. We have three sweet, beautiful boys and Kim has always had work to provide for the family and has been able to attend school as well. I'm so thankful that I have had the choice to stay home with our boys through all these years and for the good man that has made that possible. Often times i think can you really handle more, do you really want more? And yes I do and I guess we will see if I can handle it. LOL I always love a good adventure and I think we are going in head first to this one.

Never boring around here.

So I hear people say things like "I'm so Bord now that my kids are in school" or "I just sit there in the quiet house and try to think of something to do" I'm sorry I can not even comprehend this feeling. I truly hope I do someday but it will not be soon I'm for sure.

As you know Kim has been working for months on this Physician Assistant Application for Fort Sam. You would not believe what is involved in it all. The application is in a 4 inch binder and he still has more to go. If he is excepted which he will be. We would be moving from Idaho to San Antonio TX for his medical training. He will be such a good P.A This also means Active duty military for our family for the next 7 years.

Next news, We have been working on allot more paperwork as well. We are trying to adopt. We are so close to being finished with all the paper work classes and home study. we are looking for our little girls. We are adopting from the foster system. So we know this brings it's own struggles but Andy has prepared us well. little shocks us these days. We are all so happy about it we can't wait to see her.

The boys are doing great in school and are happy it's warming up and that Summer is near. We love it hear in Idaho and the weather had been nice I can't wait to mow my front grass. I better hit a tanning bed.

My Family 2011 and more to come

These are people I see and love every day. Each face brings a happiness to me. My boys are the most inportant thing to me in this world that includes my husband he is a little boy at heart and loves to play. If only he had 24 hours a day to do so his life would be perfect. Im a blessed and lucky woman to be able to put up w/ each of them. LOL

This is our beautiful family,

Andy-7 Nathan-4 Caleb-9 and Claire and Kim. We love our boys and would take half a dozen more. But for now some girls would be appreciated.

New Year, new start, new beginnings

Now I know that I'm not that old, but each year that comes and goes I feel as if my life is ticking away and I look back and see what good I have done, what I have learned or who I have helped. If I look back and feel like there want much to my year that I feel as if few memories were made and few hearts were touched by me. I want to know I have left a mark I want to know I have done my best to learn and grow and teach as much as I can of the little I know. One thing I know is love I have a love for others that I consider a gift from my Father in Heaven. I'm so thankful that it is something that I can give to others and share as freely as i desire. Trust is harder but love I have much to share. LOL

Working in the home and raising three hyper boys I often feel like my job as a mom is unappreciated or noticed but I know that all I have taught them will stay in that little vault in there brain and pray it will be opened at the right times in life. I'm blessed to be able to stay home w/ our boys and that Kim works so hard to make that possible for us all. Some day I will have more titles but for now Mother and wife will do. There is much to be done hear and much to be learned but there are years ahead of us and I plan on filling this up coming year fully with knowledge, love and lots of faith.

We never have boring years and I doubt this year will be any different. Hope you all have a wonderful New year.

Count your blessings, name them one by one

I have been thinking allot lately about how I feel like so much is delt to my hand and yet I always make it through another day even on the days I desperately feel like giving up. So many hard things come this direction and yet I'm still here. Now not to be mistaken I'm not saying I can handle more. I'm saying I have truly been blessed watched over guided by my hand and pushed from behind at times I have needed it. I have been touched by the spirit at times in need and I have felt My fathers unconditional love for me. I know that I'm a child of God and I know he is kind and loving and understanding. He must be patient to have to put up w/ me and I know he loves me. I'm thankful for this knowledge.

I'm thankful for the trials and hardships I have passed through at times run through as fast as I can feeling as if I barely made it out alive. LOL Something I have learned lately and I'm sure it has not just come over night but has taken years but I know now what it is. Faith I have learned to have faith and not just want to have it but truly feel it with in me at the hardest times. I use to think it was almost a denial in a way I would block out such terrible hard things that would be happening that I was putting them aside for later to deal w/ But It wasn't at all I have learned to place them in his hands our Father in Heaven and say Father take this please and do what you will w/ it . I will follow your lead. I always wanted to have that gift I saw in others but never felt That I carried much faith of my own. Thank you for this gift.

Some times when life hits us we smile, we may cry or even run at times. Some of us find the worst or try to look for the good in all things. Some of us prepare for the worst and hope for the best. Life is hard it is not easy. if it is than your doing something wrong. LOL it isn't suppose to be easy. Perhaps simple but rarely easy.

My next thoughts are of my husband I have tried so hard to be a good mother, the best mother I could be for so long that at time I have almost forgot my best friend needs me just as much as they do. I love my husband he is a good man. he has given me so much in these last 10 years I keep hoping a a little of him will rub off onto me. LOl I'm always proud of Kim he is still the hardest working man or woman I know. accept for maybe my mother there a close tie.

remember to pull the loved in your life aside and tell them you love them and that you are blessed for knowing them. hug them if you can, if not leave a note on there pillow or in there locker or on the door, send them a card in the mail today will be over tomorrow so get moving and let them know you care.

Work hard in this life but remember to play harder, something I have had to learn. Cry when you must and yell out loud when no one is around. But smile and laugh with your family. Pray always and anywhere. Sometimes I need to get on my knees 15 times a day just to get myself through with out yelling at my children. But pray. I have learned the more I pray the more I listen for him the more I feel him the more I trust him there for I have grown in my small amount of faith. So pray. Don't force your children let them follow you they will follow it may take time and they will get distracted but lead the way don't walk behind them shoving and yelling. remember the good they do through the day and try to set aside the bad they want to please you they want to see you smile and they want to hear that you are proud of them. So tell them. :)

Life is good, and life is hard and messy but we have help.

Happy holidays

    

    

 

Say I love you

Today as I was getting after my boys for all sorts of things It's as some one put there hand on my shoulder and gently whispered in my ear (Say I love you). I stoped and started to cry to myself. I thought have I told them today how much I love them each and every one. Caleb my sweat gentle boy who try's to please me and his father in all he does. Andy and his humble spirit that seems to do most of his thinking in this life he lives. Nathan and his silly, funny, sensitive little self. Have I told them how much I love them today?
There are few people in our lives who love us regardless of how we behave on a hard day or what we have done the day before. there are few people in this world that are beside us for the hard times and harder times. there are many who are there for the good times and exciting times in our lives but when we have a hard day who is there holding our hand? family is such a blessing to have and be a part of daily. with out the bad with out the hard times would we appreciate the good and wonderful times in our lives? would we love those around us the same or try as hard to grow and move on and become more to become like him?
Today say I love you tell them that are neer you each day that you care about them and what makes them special to you.......I love you Kim and I am a better being for having you in my life. You are gentle and steady, Kind and noble. I love you for your faith and also lack of judgment toward others. Your faith is unwavering and I love that about you.

Well September has come to an end and October is hear. We have so much that has happened this year it is hard to keep up on it all. Some of it we would rather try to forget. Well The boys have started school that in all is a NEW exsperiance for me and them. I was homeschooling Caleb for the last two years. Andy started Kindergarten and enjoys going but has a hard time with all the lights and noise. He strugles with the nonstop company he has but he is growing and learning things he wouldn't else were. Im so proud of him I have started making flash cards he has the hardest time with learning the alphabet and sounds but we make flash cards and he memorizes them by sight. So he can't sound it out but he can write it for me or read it. He has hit a groth spurt this year he is no longer our tiny underweight fragile little boy. He is tall and fast, clumsy but fast LOL, He is a smart little boy always thinking and pondering things we would rarely think about as grown ups. His health is at a stand still right now and for us we always think that is a good thing. He still has Kidney problems and his Asthma gets the best of him sometimes but he just keeps on fighting and never lets it get him down.

Caleb is our little school wiz and loves to learn and anything athletic. He is in Gymnastics. He is starting to use the rings and hourse. He loves flips and tricks he is alot like his uncle Kip and Grampy in that way. He is such a gentle kind boy he is the peace maker in our home. He loves his little brothers and to play with them and read stories to them. He loves to go hunting with his Poppa and campping. Kim and him like to go shoot there bows.

Nathan he is our most difficult one right now. He screams, wines, crys, hits, spits, kicks, throws him self on the floor and slams doors. I feel like I have a constant headache from this one. We have our own school time at home while the brothers are at the school. We are working on colors numbers shapes and letters. he gets bord fast but we draw and read allot. He likes to clean with me and load the dishes as well as vacuum. He is so funny and chatters all day long. He also makes up these silly little songs about things and his family.

Kim is working hard. he is taking 15 credit hours at Boise State and working from 3:00 to midnight 5 to 7 days a week and on call time. He leaves the house at 7:30 in the morning and he gets home around midnight or so. He does his homework between classes and between patients at the hospital. I'm so proud of him he always seems to pull A's and B's some how on top of it all. He is reenlisting active duty this year. He wants to do the Army's Medical program for physician assistant. We haven't seen much of eachother this summer or fall it has been a long year.

I feel like a single mom but am so thankful for my husband and how hard he works to provide for our family. He takes good care of us and is such a good man. Kim is an example to me of kindness and patients. Im so greatly blessed to have Kim as my husband. I haven't had much spare time but I love to just be alone and relax. I enjoy shopping for my four men and shoes thats always a good one. I like to get out on the road and ride for miles untill my legs feel like Jello and I don't think I could go any farther and my face feels like it is beet red and on fire and my rear is sore. Im not sure why but I love that feeling of being so tired physicaly that I can't think about anything else. I am ready for fall but hope the snow stays in the mountains this winter.

Well I life is good and fast as always I supose I would start to worry if I had to much time on my hands probly not....

Moving right along!

Kim just ended his finals he did great all A's and one B+ Im so proud of him he works sooo hard.
He starts up again in January two semesters left. Huray!!!

Caleb is moving right along in school and will be finishing the year early. He has somuch energy I have him doing sit ups and push ups each day. He is quite the Power House. He has lost 8 teath already he is a bit toothless it is so cute on him.

Andy is talking about being a Man tomorrow because he is growing up he brushes his teath on his own and now is using the potty. he just has to get the sleeping in his own bed down now.
He is go wild and loud he keeps us going all day. I would think I should be loosing more weight whith how Imrunning around after him.

Nathan Wow he is a handfull. He really is a strong willed one these days, Dont know were he gets it? Screaming bighting hitting you name it.

Well I have just started my own blog who would have thunk it right?

We moved Boise Idaho 11 months ago and so far so good! we have loved it and all has gone well. we have had 5 surerys and a few hospital satys hear and there, Nothing we are not use to but like I say the show must go on and so dose life.

Caleb is almost 7 and is so handsome and smart he is in first grade and we are home schooling him. he loves sports and wants to be a zoo keeper when he grows up.

Andrew is almost 5 and is offten bittersweat, he is a tough little guy who keeps on going and going anf going. He can hug as hard as he hits and smiles like a little angel. He is going to a special edd school for three hours a day and likes it most days.

Nate oh what do i say he is a little monster alot of the time but is so silly and sweat. He has a funny side to him and makes us all laugh and cry. He love bath time and eating of course.

Kimi is working and going to school he started back at Boise State this Fall and doing well.
