I feel Sorry!

So where do I begin. Really where do I start to tell a story that is not a happy ending and well.. OK I quess I will start at the begining..
a month ago we got transfer calls for the missionaires and You all know how much I love the missionaries.
I would do almost anything for them.

So more or less I have 4 of them. 2 from 3rd ward which I live and 2 from the 5th ward that have just been special to me.

Elder Reed and Elder Tanner. I have told you how much I love both of these missionaries.. and it just saddens my heart to find that Elder Reed has lost his focus as a missionary and he has lost that spirit about missionary work.  You would not or could not ask for a more gentle missionary as Elder Tanner. Very sweet and humble missionary.

Well Elder Reed has had a few issues as of late. Very sad because there is something very special about him.
To the point that he is being so rebellious that I just want to shake the heck out of him. I guess Sunday night he did not want to teach or go anywhere so being the person he was he turned on the radio, followed by opening the car door and putting his foot out the door, to the point that when they came to a stop sign he got out of the car... Elder Tanner just drove away.

Now this is where I came in.
I just had dinner with my families. Which I will say more about later but after dinner we had Stake Priesthood so it was just awesome.. I walked over to the church with my brothers.. It was awesome! We walked in and all sat together. IT was the FAMILY that I have learned to love and support and have support from. Thank you. They have been a great example to me and I love each of them very much.

So when we came home the missionaries were here at my home, this is where I came in. I told Ted and Lane that I would take them home and I just could tell something was not right with the missionaries. So I took Ted and Lane home and came back to a very unpleasant home...

To the tune of Elder Reed flippin Elder Tanner off and well it was just not cool. issues have to be addressed.
It was so uncalled for and I feel SORRY! I feel sorry that the spirit of contention was being spread by the missionaries and the peaceful word.

What do you say? What do you do? How do you help?

So here we sit 3 days later and I have been told that Elder Reed has had a major interview with the president, His faith was in the mission presidents hand wiether to be sent home or not.. THERE has to be other issues that I dont know about.

Heck.. if that was the case I would have been sent home because of the Missionaries that I served with!!!

So I feel sad that a young man out to serve the Lord has to feel this way toward another missionary and I fell sad that he is not feeling that wonderful spirit of missionary work.

I wont say that I was the perfect missionary and did not have my faults. I will say that I as I have AGED and have grown up.. I think President Hinckley said it best in the "Called to Serve" video.. "your not much to look at but you are all we have."

Scott: Mr Muhammad, the tentants in the house have a lease until June 30th at midnight.
Mr Muhammad: but Mr Scott... they want the house for June 1st
Scott: Sorry Mr Muhammad... but they cant have it..
Mr Muhammad: But Scott...
Scott: Sorry they paid there last month rent until the 30th of June and thats what the lease says.

Do you see what type of day I am having....

But I do have to say one thing...

Mom and Dad I love you and I am so greatful that you taught me what you did...

Mother's day 2011

WOW I can not believe I have lived almost through another mother's day. I know that tomorrow is the day but its the work up to that takes the most of the time and really by sunday we are just waiting for everything to sell.

Today Has been one of those days that well..... I am tired and just want to sleep.. good luck with that one!

Anyway, I just wanted to drop a few lines of what is going on in my little life.

School seems to be going... Work is going and well.. thats about it. Funny thing is It seems to be a fun evening most nights with a milk shake with the missionaries or some kind of food with the missionaries.

I am learning a few things and WELL I sometime just have to sit back and remember that I am dealing with 19-22 year olds. Oh to be that young again. NOPE not me I would not change my 40 for anything.

Anyway... I just wanted to say Happy mother's day out there to all the mother's out there and all my friends mothers and well just everyone.. Happy Mother's Day.

Rainy days and mondays always get me down!

I should really listen to the blues. LOL... Ok it has been on of those days. I quess Karen Carpenter had it right when she sang that song however she was not from Seattle and I love my rainy days.

Yesterday was so beatiful and I had such a great day. I wish everyday was a wonderful a beatiful as yesterday was. the SUN was out and it was feeling so much like SPRING like it should. I have been working on getting the garden ready for planting... dont worry yesterday was not the day I worked in the garden, however my nice neighbor did come up and rototilled my garden, which the girlies loved watching him.

Ok.. so It was stake confenece weekend and I am always learning new things during confenece. 1st off, I think that sometime we dont realize that other people have it a little harder than I do. I think of my trails sometimes and in compareness... mine are a piece of cake. MAN its true I make my life sometimes a little harder than it really is. Yeah I am in pain sometimes but sometimes people live with things in there lives that they can not control. and Well sometimes I can control what I do.
2nd the King James Edition of the Bible is almost 400 years old. Learned this from Stake Conference.. Yes the Bible is older than that but its the edition that is the most correct.
3rd.. simple things in life is what we should be looking at. KEEP it simple!

So last night dinner was simple. French dip sandwiches and french fries, a salad and well it was just an awesome evening. So I have had this big bag of fortune cookies that one I love and second, I love.. so when I opened one up I read this...

Your home will be a great source of happiness...

I just had to think of all the wonderful people that have taken a minute to spend their life with me. 
I sure hope that the happiness is shared here.

Not sure why...

Not sure why I am feeling the way I am. 2 weeks ago I did Easter and I had a blast... so WHY am I feeling the way I am feeling tonight.

last night I started to chat with Jen about FAMILY... Oh I know I am the one that has to change and make my life the way I want it to be. But I am feeling a little missed and sometimes I am missing all the fun.. and well... that All I can really say.

I do not know why or what is causing me to feel a little blue tonight. Trust me.. I am kind of glad that I dont have the stress I have been having and that I am somewhat relaxed tonight. I made 2 Peanut Butter French silk pies and I have no one coming over for dinner tomorrow because I have to work. Tell me what the heck is that all about.

maybe it is the fact that I have not had family over for the last 2 sundays and I am missing it. I said that when Ted and Shelby leave and Cam and Lane leave I was done. I might not be. I might have to do it because I need it in my life. Maybe that is why I have been blue the last few days.

I guess I am not truely happy unless I am serving someone or doing something for someone else. It's odd to say that because I really think sometimes I want to be selfless. really... I just want it all to be about me... me... me... me...

It's odd feeling this way and I know that this is not me. but I fight with myself sometimes and just say WHY not me.

anyway I know its sad that I am writing this down, but sometime I just have to write what is on my mind.

300 posts

Since I started to blog..

It has been a busy day for me, I worked most of the day and had a few issues, you know I just was thinking a minute ago... I am not going to beat the dead horse. LEAVE IT go.

I learn little things everyday. The other day in my visual thinking class we did the little exersice.
take a deep breath.
then take another deep breath and count 1 and leave it out count 1
take another deep breath and count 1-2 and leave it out count 1-2
so on and so forth until you can count to 10 in and out.. now remember if you mess up you have to start over at 1.
so I have been trying to do this lately. Just to bring peace in my life. I know what is happening to me.. just so you know its yoga and I am not sitting on the floor yet.

SO why am I writing tonight. one reason is to say Happy Birthday to my dear brother in law Naki.
so I tend to be great friends with the missionaries and this last week we had transfers and I am super excited because Elder Reed is from Hawaii.. and it has just been so neat and I am just remember Naki.

Elder Reed has mad me laugh so hard already and It is so fun, I will get text's can we come over.. I always say yes.. WELL our dinner was a little bowl of soup I am straving.. so I am so glad I have food in this house. It is awesome.

Tonight I knew they were coming over so I had a bowl of potatoes with butter and cheese on them, this kid ate the whole bowl, the other night I made a big salad and he ate all of that. HE is a big boy (Sorry Young Man). Its just fun to be able to spend time with my missionaries.

Easter is on Sunday and I will try my best to post some more pictures.... about 2 weeks ago, Kami, texted me thank you for the eggs, YES you all did as well... but I started to tell Kami why I do these eggs.

and as I was texting the reason why it came to me that.... most of the davis children were just that, children.  I need to find pictures because I know I have some of them.. But I texted this to her...

About 20 years ago, I played the easterbunny, when the kids were younger. I made them these eggs (not this nice of looking ones) and I hide all these colored eggs in the yard when they came home from church there were easter basket for each of the kids, and colored eggs spotted the yard, I tried to keep the theme going but missed a few years.
I have tried to keep the theme going, I have sent mother eggs so she has a nice set of eggs, so now I am trying to keep the idea alive. I know I am crazy but I so remember all the kids getting out of the van after church and yelling and it was priceless to me.

I remember the kids yelling as they got out of the van, it was the same little screams as I heard a few weeks ago when I did it with my families.

I guess I just am digging a little deeper into my life trying to remember as much as I can.

Life is priceless and I dont want to forget anything.
