Today is the BIG day for Clint!! He is getting baptized!! I bet that you can't tell that I am looking forward to this. I have barely slept all night! Besides that, it is going on 3:30am in the morning. I hope that i don't live to regret this, but this is going to be such a life changing experience for him, and already has been. He had his interview with the Mission District Leader person yesterday. After an hour of him being gone, since I stayed home with the girls, and after having the Missionaries go over the questions with him Wednesday night, I could not imagine what could possibly take him so long. Around a quarter after 4pm he walks through the door. I often bring myself back to the days of our past just so I can compare him now to who has become, two totally different people on a spiritual level anyway. To actually sit down and listen to him talk church, is amazing. Clint and I both have something in common now that we are looking forward to... being sealed in the Temple. Like I have said, in an earlier post, Cadence and Chazlyn have no idea what an important thing this is to have their daddy do, but I know that someday they both will. After all, Cadence is already half way to eight!!!
Last Thursday was kind of a trying day for me. I had been experiencing really bad headaches due to the length of my hair. Sounds silly, right?? I agree. I bet that you'd never believe that I had long hair once upon a time, since I can't keep much length on it these days. My parents had Clint, the girls, and I over for dinner Thursday night. My mom also gave me a hair cut that night, since I had been getting these awful headaches. The time before I got my hair cut, i was planning on growing out my hair just to donate it to Locks of Love. Well, that didn't turn out very well either. I started getting these headaches, and had to get it cut. I felt bad for it, but at the same time, I couldn't go on day in and day out with the types of headaches I was having. Besides that I get a lot of headaches alone, without the long hair. Needless to say, i had my mom cut it kind of short. I am loving being able to do my hair and having no pain come from it!:D
I am just having one of those days, where all I can think about is how amazing my husband is. He has come so far! I often look back on the days that we were living in Chandler, and how dead set against going to church with Cadence and I he was, to this man that won't miss a Sunday of church unless we have a sick kid. He is getting Confirmed in Sacrament Meeting tomorrow at church, and I think that is going to be an awesome thing to witness. Clint already has it set up with the guy in our ward, Tyler Dees to do the confirming. SO NEAT!!!!
Here I am, still up at pushing4am in the morning. I have to go up and meet my sister down the street to pick up a hair clip that she made just for me to wear to the Baptism this evening, and I am not getting a lot of sleep. I am going to go lay down and see if, with any luck, I can get back to sleep!
His baptism was so awesome and I am so excited for your family. I can't wait to see you guys go through the temple in a year from now!!! :)
