you've got to start somewhere

“Making the decision to have a child - it is momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body. ” - Elizabeth Stone

As my little birdies have grown and flown from our nest, my heart currently walks around in Idaho, Brazil, and Utah (soon to be Argentina). My Idaho flock is doing well, and as they are able to communicate for themselves, I'll try to post the latest news from Brock and Parker in South America. Please send good vibes! As I have come to realize, all parenting stages have their own unique blessings and challenges. And people are generally doing the best they know how.

Update - September 1, 2017

I can't believe it's been a year, and we are getting ready to send another missionary out. Pieces of my heart will now walk around in Minnesota, Idaho, Argentina and Chile. Brock returned home from Brazil in late July and we have been soaking up our minutes with him before he leaves next week to continue his schooling. Parker is doing well in Argentina and we miss him so! Jameson and Arianne have graduated college and are doing well, experiencing "real life" in the wilds of Minnesota. Jack leaves for South America this week and our hearts are both happy and heavy. Much love to any and all who spend a moment reading in this space.

Update II - March 1, 2019

Time keeps us all moving right along. Parker returned home healthy and happy from Argentina this past August and has joined Brock at BYUI. They are very happy to be together again after three long years. Jameson and Arianne are still in Minnesota, but Jameson is now back in school preparing for a graduate degree. We miss them all so very much. Jack has a little less than six months to go! We can hardly believe it. He loves Chile and will finish out his mission serving as the mission secretary. We can't wait to all be reunited again this coming August.
