I miss you so much! It has been almost a month since I have been able to come and see you! Wow! Well, I haven't been able to read your blog for a while because I have been so busy working on the farm, but I love the hair!!! All the highlights and curls look amazing! You are so beautiful! And, this wedding book is great! I love the stroller...I think Kyle's family might be hinting towards something...hmmm...maybe another little one in the near future! How about it Miriam? Adney is so cute in the pictures with him on the grass! That is amazing that he is so animated!
This is the main thing that I wanted to talk to you about...The dillema of you working or staying at home with your kids... This is something that I have a very strong opinion about, and it is not just because I am going to be so blessed that I probably won't ever have to work after I have kids, but it is because this is a huge thing in the world today. So, I know that things are getting to be extremely expensive nowadays, and life is crazy as is, with your own expenses as a couple and now a baby...It can be done though. I suggest you stay home with Adney. That is the first and far most important place a mother should be. You are to care for your children, and no matter how tough it is, your husband is to provide. He agreed to that when he married you. He knew what he was taking on, and he is an amazing man Miriam. I know he can provide for you. Plus, you have amazing families that help you guys out so much. Just cut back on all the things that you do not need. I mean absolutely need. Don't buy anything that you want. It must be a need in order to be worth your money. I can only imagine how expensive it is to have a baby, but I have seen couples do it before. Ted's sister is doing it right now, and her husband makes pretty mush nothing. She has two children and one on the way, and they are still making it work. Miriam Adney will only be at this precious and crucial age once. Take advantage of it. Don't let money or anything else come between you and your baby...especially not day care. I love you, and if you need anything, I am always here to help.

Hey Miriam,

I am new to your super cute blog. You have a beautiful family. I found it via Rachel Law. In response to your april 20th post, send me your e-mail address at ali.flegal@gmail.com. A friend recently sent me a genuine work from home opportunity that she loves - if you're interested.

On a side note: My husband graduates today. Of his ten semesters, six of them, I spent at home with my children. I know the conflict you feel and would happily share some of my thoughts in an e-mail. Every family situation is different and I respect that and whatever you choose to do. Anyway - from one 'at home mom'/nauvoo child to another, send me an e-mail if you're interested :)
