Have you ever thought about how life is just really, really hard? Even with a strong belief in a loving and all-powerful Heavenly Father I still get rattled sometimes. Especially on days at the end of the winter when it is gray and just so freakin' cold. (My bones haven't been warm since October.)
A friend said goodbye to a premature baby boy yesterday. He was born months too soon and only lived four weeks. So sad I can hardly stand it.

Another friend has a darling wife, three cute, young kids and a brain tumor. So unfair.

So, to look forward, happily, hopefully, and with more strength, pulled up bootstraps, and all that, here are some simple words from one of my favorite people ever:
“We are here in mortality, and the only way to go is through;
there isn’t any around.”
there isn’t any around.”
-Neal A. Maxwell

...and some photos from Spring training, that could make anybody giddy with anticipation of opening day and put a great big smile on my face:
GO SOX!!

I am sorry to hear about your friends.
Whenever I'm down in the dumps I usually turn to you to cheer me up, so sometimes I forget that you are human and sometimes YOU are the one who needs the cheering. Hopefully you know you can always call me when you're blue and I'll do anything I can for you!
