Look who turned 6 weeks old yesterday! Isn't she such a doll. I can't get enough of her. Unfortunately she's really congested and coughing right now. It's breaking my heart. We're headed to the doctor in a little while to make sure everything's alright.
The other day I was reading the Ensign, the first presidency message to be specific. It was about missionary work, but that's not really what I took from it. Pres. Monson said something that keeps re-playing over and over in my head the past few days.
"The Lord will shape the back to bear the burden placed upon it."
That phrase gives me a lot of peace. It certainly doesn't mean that all my problems are gone. Every day (and night) is still a challenge. But I have more confidence in myself, as long as I'm relying on the Lord. Just thought I'd share since last time I blogged it was overly soul-bearing, and borderline depressing. My spirits have since been lifted :).

She is so beautiful Linds! I just want to kiss those little cheeks. You are such an amazing mom!
Oh she is so beautiful and just pure and sweet. You're inspiring Linds. Such a great mom because you try to improve everyday. I love your blog.
What a great quote! Thanks, Linds!
I just caught up on your last 4 posts...I'm so sorry you've been dealing with sick kids and sleepless nights. I am sure you are handling it as well as any mother I know, you just have "it." I hear the stage you are in is as hard as it gets. :)
I can't believe she is already 6 weeks old! Time sure does fly! It is so fun to see how different she is from Brynlee and how much she looks like Ty. I remember looking at pictures (on your blog)of Brynlee while she was screaming, wearing a cute pink outfit, and her little eyes were so small with furry. Brynlee is such a sweetheart but I bet you're glad that Madi doesn't have colic. You sure are a great wife and Mom Linds!
She is an angel!
wow thats a great quote. and she is getting so big already! what the heck!! haha
