The happy things in life.

There have been things lately that have filled me with a joy not replaceable. I have been thinking and doing a lot lately and one of the things that i realize make me happy are the little things, i never really noticed before that the little things are really the biggest.. I've become humbled this past month living with the Walters. I'm eternally grateful for them taking me a crazy 19 year old with not the slightest grip on life into their home and loving me unconditionally as they always have. I now have a death grip on life and quite a few battle scars to show for it which makes me even more blessed. I love Tiffany like a mom for the way she gracefully helped put me back together and show me that life is beautiful and we were not placed on this earth to be unhappy but to love our life and bless others in the process all while smiling. Today Cedrick picked little flowers from the front yard and came up to me and gave me one and said "i luff you Telia" It goes to show the love that Tiff gives to her children and everyone around her is contagious and i'm so glad i've caught it.
On the Trek we experienced a "Womens Pull" and we had to pull or carts with just the sisters in our family while our Pa and brothers were on the hill watching us. It was probably one of the hardest things i have ever been asked to do. A little more than half way up the mountain after we had given all we could were almost to the point of complete defeat when angels came and starting pushing our cart for us and they helped us till we were back to where we could do it on our own. After that experience i thought to myself i wish i could have angels like that all the time and now i know that I DO. There are 5 girls in my life that i would not be able to make it with out and i know this to be true that Heavenly Father gave them to me because he knew i would need them and they love me unconditionally no matter my flaws. These beautiful girls are what keep me together and help me stay on the straight and narrow path. The best part of it all is that they have been there all along no matter the condition of my spirit whether it strong or in pieces and for that i'm forever yours. Each of these girls has shown me different and wonderful ways to love my self others and become selflessly engaged in the gospel. I dont think you will all ever know the full graditude in which i have for you and i hop you know you all have a special place in my heart irreplaceable. I love you Emilee ruth, Tiffany, Mae, Elise, and Simone.
