Insightful Vinyl For The Week
"Don’t be gloomy. Do not dwell on unkind things. Stop seeking out the storms and enjoy more fully the sunlight. Even if you are not happy, put a smile on your face. “Accentuate the positive.” Look a little deeper for the good. Go forward in life with a twinkle in your eye and a smile on your face, with great and strong purpose in your heart. Love life.” ~ Gordon B. Hinckley

SUGAR AND SPICE AND EVERYTHING NICE! BABY KRESTA HAS ARRIVED.

Each second we live is a new and unique moment of the universe,

A moment that never was before and never will be again.

And what do we teach our children in school? We teach them that two and two make four. And that Paris is the capital of France.

When will we also teach them what they are?
We should say to each of them: Do you know what you are?
You are a marvel. You are unique.

In all of the world there is no other child exactly like you.

In the millions of years that have passed, there has never been a child like you.

And look at your body- what a wonder it is!
Your legs, your arms, your cunning fingers, the way you move!
You may become a Shakespeare, a Michelangelo, a Beethoven.

You have the capacity for anything. Yes, you are a marvel.

And when you grow up, can you then harm another who is, like you, a marvel?
You must cherish one another

We must all work-

To make this world worthy of its children.

-Pablo Casals

Kresta Yvonne Williams

Her sweet little spirit joined our family on Monday, May 23rd at 4:01 pm. One week to the day of my 25 yr. "Life" anniversary of the Cokeville Elementary bombing.
She is 7 lbs 5 oz. of pure, heavenly sweetness.
Lots of dark hair, and blue eyes.

She has all the men in this family wrapped around her little finger, especially her daddy.
Who held her every moment he could while visiting at the hospital.
The love I feel for her is amazing, breathtaking, life-changing.

Our family was not complete without her.

I was not complete without her.
This world will be a better place because she's here. I imagine her potential. I imagine the impact she will make with her new life. It is miraculous.

Oh Amy, she is absolutely beautiful! Just like her mama. She is a marvel and a joy. I wish I could hold her. Seeing her with her daddy torn my heart out a little because Phil won't be there when his baby is born. There is nothing so sweet to a new mother than to see her man holding her baby so very gently. It makes you fall in love all over again. Congrats!

Jaime told me you had more pictures of your beautiful baby girl on your blog so I had to come and check them out! I love these pictures! I hope all is well with you and that you enjoy every minute of holding and having a girl in your family.
