bring it on 2010~

Ok, 2008 goodby weight, 2009 toning up fine
that is until shoulder surgery a week before
St. Nick's visit..........ouch is the operative word!

First P.T. tomorrow, which I'm told is not too
painful, ??????????? ouch

On Percocet, Christmas Eve was great!! Everyone
pitched in and we had a wonderful lasagna dinner at
Amy & Austin's home. I missed being able to hold
and hug as I like to, it was more of a one-armed bandit
affair~~

I have amazing kids & grand-kids, totally not being
prejudice, right?...........They are so good to me and
so sweet!

My New Year's resolution is to be continually grateful
for the good health I have always been blessed with
and to use that blessing to help others!!

Six to eight weeks from now - Watch out world
Sheila's back! ( smile )

Happy New Year to all!!!
I love you!

You have really grown as a dancer little girl!!! your technique was amazing!

Happy Happy Birthday sweet Brooke, your heart is special and you are a beautiful 10 year old inside and out!

Britney Boo - November 29th!! & Kobe December 1st




Britney turns nine on November 29th! I can well remember the tiny little baby girl Jason wouldn't let go of when she arrived~~We'll celebrate with her cousin Kobe this Friday night. Jill will feel more like celebrating with a few more days under her belt!

Britney you have been such a sweet and brave little girl~ when you had that terrible bone infection, nothing kept you down long, riding your bike with your IV attached used to get lots of stares~~You are an awesome soccer player - you help your mom so much with the "brothers" ~ You have a tender maternal love for all little babies, I know you will enjoy someday to be a mommy yourself! I'm so proud of you and the wonderful grades you make at school, I love to hear you read and sing, you have perfect pitch! You have such a great ability to fix your hair since you were quite small and your beautiful beautiful face when you smile, it lights up the room! Keep doing it! Be positive~~ Your Parents and Heavenly Father and your Savior, Jesus love you with a perfect love and want you to be happy all your life. They will always be near you if you talk to them with your problems.

Now my little tow head Kobe, Happy Birthday big guy! ... You were our little Norwegian baby when you were born, very very handsome! It was so fun to watch you play football this year! You are a leader and I know you will continue to choose the right in all that you do. I love to watch you wrestle with you big brother and I love the way you treat your mom with big hugs! Thank you for making thanksgiving so wonderful with your special prayer for all of us. We're going to party hardy this Friday night! We will all make sure you have a lot of your favorite there ~ CAKE! ~

Keep reading your scriptures, do well in school and learning everything to make you a great missionary one day! I love you!
