Family, love them or leave them

okay so i have been up since 4:30 am, why i don't know, i used to stay up all hours of the night, and sleep in till noon, gone are those days, but i guess waking up early has it's advantages too, what they are right now, i don't know, i am tired, but not enough to go back to bed, besides the kids will probably be up soon, we have a baby's room to complete, a house to clean and a nap to take somewhere in the afternoon, as we have a certain 8 year old's birthday party today.

So Family?

Why is it that you have a so called "loving parent" knock the crap (litterly) out of there teenage child and then accuse that adult child's spouse of doing the same thing?

Why is that a parent can ask for "brutal honesty" then turn around and rip there children a new one for doing exactly what they ask.

Why is it that there are imperfect- perfect families out there?

Why is it that i am rambling on?

Why is it that i have a insane desire to be up this early?

Why is it that i post?

Why is it that i know my brother Robert will later today say casually "you shouldn't put stuff like that on your blog, because once it's on the Internet it's always on the Internet"

Why is it that i don't release names of every not so good choice makers that i know?

Why is it that short of briefly airing my griefs that i don't just lay into these family members who make bad choices, even though i know that given the chance they would do this to me?

Why is it that i hate and like my job all at the same time?

Why is it that someone who's made poor choices can't just simply be forgiven?

Why is it that some people don't understand the difference between forgiving and forgetting, and forgiving but not forgetting?

Why is it that 1 parent finally grows up when you grow up, but the other does not?

Why is it that everyone who reads this is going to read more into it then they should?

Why is it that people will immediately start assuming they know who i am talking about, when for all they know it has nothing to do with them?

Why is it that one shows there love by saying "i love you all the time" while the other one only wants to show it and does a pretty poor job at it?

Why is it that there are so many "why is it's"?

Here's what i do know, or at least think i know.

1. Love your God
2. Love your Spouse
3. Love your Children
4. Set the example
5. Love your family despite there faults
6. Know when to say i love you but i can't be around you anymore
7. Know when to not repeat the sins of your parents
8. Know when to follow there example
9. Realise that we are not all perfect
10. Seek the good in everyone, even if you don't think they have any, because they always do.
11. Be the parent you always wanted to have.
12. Teach your children well (i think there is a song that says that)
13. Never where a white shirt to church as there the ones that always get the major callings, i.e. bishops, stake presidents etc.
14. Never threaten to kill yourself and blame your children for it, because no matter what they do it's not there fault.
15. Don't ask for "brutal honesty" if you really don't want it.
16. Always love music, it makes you smarter.
17. Always get up at 4:30 in the morning and blog
18. Never text someone at 3:50 in the morning unless it's a emergency, and if it's not a emergency it must mean you want to be the emergency.
19. Never get epilepsy, because it hurts when you hit the floor, even if you don't know it hurt till later.
20. Give praise to those you love, and to those you see who are the imperfect-perfect examples of what you want to be, and say there name's "Evie, Timothy, J.D. Melissa. The Heindels, The Fidels, The Lukers, Mae Shaw, The Burkhardts, Mom, Robert, Neil, Brian, Andrea, Arae, etc. etc. etc. why because they can teach you something, How to be a better person.
21. Know when to say, Robert I'm sorry that i put it on the Internet knowing that it will stay on the Internet.
22. Know when to say Evie it's okay to be a cannibal if and only if you are stuck on a mountain pass in the middle of winter and there's nothing else to eat, or not, Gross!!
23. Know when to stop blogging. I think it's time!

Accountable or A Cannibal? That is the question


Accountable




A Cannibal



Which one is Evie?
Evie says Cannibal when she means accountable, think goodness on 11-11 she will actually be accountable, not a cannibal. So for 3 more days, i guess she can live it up! and she is definitely doing that! She seems to be getting excited for baptism, December 6th at 10:00 AM is the current plan!
