This picture was taken last week. I could not find Blake anywhere, and my niece Hailey told me that Blake fell asleep under her bed. I just had to snap a picture. She was out for a good 3 hours. There's a little story behind this...a couple of weeks ago our family suffered a tragic loss. My 10 week old baby niece Jacey passed away of complications from SIDS. She was just a perfect little angel and it was the Father's will to call her home. Needless to say, things have been slightly chaotic ever since. We've had anywhere from 8 to 11 kids (cousins or cousints as Lincoln would say) spending the days and nights with us. For about a week-and-a-half Blake graciously gave up her bed for her cousins, and willingly slept on the floor. I think she was trying to escape all the chaos and noise that day, so she decided to tuck away under her bed! I love that little girl!OK, so this is kind of random, but this is an entry from one of Blake's journals at school...word for word.

I think a hero isn't some one like Spider man, Batman, Superman, or any one like that. To me a hero is like George Washington, Abrham Lincoln, Presedent Hinkly and James Madison. I think heros are cool becase without them Id think it would be no fun. Example: My dad is my hero. And thats what I think about heros.
I love those little glimpses of testimonies that come from children! Thank you primary teachers!

What a sweet little girl. I'm glad you started a blog. It's such an easy way to keep another record of the family happenings. It's fun too.
