So much YES!

So I just read this article that really spoke to me. Here is the link : Click Here I have an openly gay brother who has had so much to deal with in his life and he isnt even 16. He has had to deal with people making him feel less then confident in who he is, and taring him down instead of building him up. This article makes me feel like more people should read it and TRULY love every person for who they are.  Yes granted some people are truly not good at times. I know there are sick and twisted people, but judging all people based off of one's actions is not ok. So enjoy the read and the post in general. Try to go out of your way and understand people, because as the quote goes... everyone is battling a different battle, you just don't know it.

On other news in my life, Seth is a happy almost 14 month old boy with new glasses.

He is seeing the world in a whole new way. He had a hard time focusing before and resting his eyes, these really help him. I love seeing him discover the world. The best part of just watching him grow in general has to be on Sundays. Going from the baby in the car seat, to being buckled into my carrier and trying to stay awake during the meetings, to walking along the little space in out pew, and sitting and looking at his church books. It was great seeing him taking sacrament and a little girl who sits in front of us about 3 years old, say to her dad "look at the baby eating the food", when her herself wasn't necessarily given the chance to take the sacrament herself. (Disclaimer you are able to chose for your family what you do and at what age you take the sacrament, but for me and how I chose to raise Seth, he has been getting sacrament since 7 months old.) It was great so see her notice that this little boy of 13 1/2 months was ready and knowing he was getting the sacrament.
