Cassy's April Letter

April 12, 2012

Dear Children,


Your father had a very good idea and now I am going to do the same. Sometimes the things he comes up with amazes me. I would never have thought of writing a letter to you on a blog. So here goes my letter to you for this month.


I first off wanted to tell you how much I love you. I may not know you yet, but I know how much I love each and everyone of you. I have also been thinking a lot about how much I love your father. He is so smart and loving. I've been thinking about my favorite times of the day and all of them revolve around our little family. I love when your father kisses me and tells me how much he loves me when he gets up in the morning. I love that he calls me when he is on his way home. I love how he kisses me when he gets home in the evening and tells me good morning. Yes, good morning. Lastly, I love how he cuddles with me when we go to bed at night. He is a wonderful man and you are so lucky to have him as your father.


We have had a nice week of just hanging out, because of spring break. We have played a lot of Settlers of Catan and watched a lot of Avatar, the Last Airbender this week. Yes, we are geeks, but we have fun. Sadly, he was also gone on Thursday and Saturday for the State Drama Competition with his high school kids. He loves the drama stuff and his students. I have enjoyed the time I have had to myself as well. I wrote this letter and did the grocery shopping.


We also enjoyed this last Sunday. We dyed Easter eggs on Saturday and ate lots of candy. On Sunday we went to church and learned of the wonderful sacrifice our Savior has made for us. I want to close this letter by telling you, my children, that I believe that the Atonement is one of the most important things to me. Christ's Atonement shows me how much he loves me and how much he understands me. He understands the trials that we face, making it so we are never alone. The Atonement lets us atone for our sins, but I think for me it is more about having someone who has suffered all that I have suffered and having someone who understands perfectly. I love my savior and the sacrifice he has made for me.


We love you so much and we pray for you everyday. You are constantly in our prayers. I love you very much and I hope you have a wonderful month.


Love,


Mom
