the things that occupy the mind (or whats daddy thinking about)


An MBA. I remember when I graduated from the University of Utah with my degree in engineering, I felt I have completed the requirement the Lord had spelled out in my patriarchal blessing to "finish your education." A few years of work with our own company and I came to the realization that I had not yet fulfilled this admonition. Shortly there after we moved to California and I went back to school to become a prosthetist, then again to become an orthotist. I think I always knew that these steps would not be enough to put my mind at rest and lately I have been preparing myself to take the next step in my education, a masters in buisness.
My gospel doctrine lessons. I love to teach and I love to prepare. Most often time will permit discussion of one tenth the topics I prepare, but you have to be ready for where the spirit steers you.
Leanne. I am obsessed. Is that bad? If she weren't so dang cute.
Erin. My eyes will still well up with tears when I think of how she is missed. The days I spent building her casket are some of the most sacred memories I have and I often think on the strong, undeniable spirit that filled those days.
Pictures. I like to take pictures. Have you noticed? I like to learn how to be good at something and I think I (we) am getting better.
