There's nothing like a newborn around the holidays to really highlight the priorities in life. There's really nothing more valuable in this world than family. As I look at my little, tiny, beautiful baby boy, it's hard not to imagine the Savior when he was born. Like each of us, he was born into this world totally dependent. Ultimately, he gave us the most precious gift that could ever be given. The gift of eternal life is one that is infinitely more beautiful to me now that I have my own little family. The knowledge that I can be together with Geoff and Will forever is not only comforting, but essential to my happiness.
Over the Christmas holiday, Geoff and I had the opportunity to visit both our families out in Utah and California. While we were in California, my parents took us to the Oakland temple to see the Christmas lights. It was beautiful. It was also so meaningful. Four years ago, Geoff and I were able to be sealed together forever inside that fantastic building and now that we have added Will to the family, that day has even more significance to me.

I love Will more each day. And each day I think to myself, it would be impossible to love someone more than I love him. I loved our travels during December and having Will have the opportunity to be around all those who love him. There are so many. He is such a lucky boy to have so many people who love him.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. May 2012 be full of happiness, strength, growth, change and family.

I'll try to be a better blogger. Things are very busy around here, but I want to document so much. So, don't give up on me yet.
