What do you say to you 2 year old who is forced to watch a show on TV that is for young kids but it is not a cartoon and she picks up on the one thing you thought that she would never pick up on. Yes I am taking about Sadi calling her brother and sister Boobs. There is a funny TV program on Nick called Josh and Drake. Scot and I have sat down and watch it with the kids and think that it is a funny show, except that the young sister calls her two brother boobs when she greets them. So as soon as Sage and Jake get in the car after school, Sadi greets them with hey boobs. Funny yes, should we stop this, yes, but to watch it go on for a while is funny too!! This is our Sadi is her dress ups!!! We love you Sadi Ann!!!

Congratulations Wade and Kellie the Wedding was great! On Feb 16 2008 our nephew Wade was married in the Salt Lake Temple. We were excited to go since we have been stuck in our home sick for several weeks and to get out of the house on such a special occation was fun. It was also fun to try out my new camera that I recieved on Christmas.

Violin

We are so excited that our Aunt Wephie is teaching us violin lessons. Sage asked for a violin from Santa but he did not pull through with the gift, but thank heavens we have such great grandparents that purchase a violin for her instead. Thanks Grandma and Grandpa Carn!! When we opened the gift aunt Wephie tuned it for us and asked Sage if she could be her violin teacher is which she reply "No I think that we will get another teacher" Sorry Aunt Wephie I think that she had no idea that you were so good at violin. We started our first violin lesson Monday Jan 28 2008. We have faithfully been practicing ever since Christmas and now that we have had our first lesson we are pros. Sadi did not get a violin for Christmas because she is to young to start but has been asking for one since we got Sage's and it is not anyone it needs to be a purple one. Holy Cow do they even make purple ones??? So in it place we have a fisher price violin. Sage started to practice hers and put Rosin on the bow and Sadi had to put Rosin on her bow also. Sage is amazed how well Sadi violin can play and told me that she hope that she can play as good as Sadi violin one day. You can Sage just give it time.

The peacock have a family goal this year, we are going to memorize the 13 articles of faith. We already have the first one down, and are going to start every family home evening by repeating them all. To make sure that our kids have it down I decided to have them each repeat the first one on their own. Jake wanted to go first and did it great, then we had Daddy say it and then Sage and then myself. We started on the second article of faith and out came a loud cry from Sadi. I made every stop reciting it so that I could get control of Sadi's crying. When I asked her what was wrong she stated " I want to say we believe." I have to remember that even though she is only 2 years old she gets to have a turn too. I am so sorry, I thought that she was just sitting there not listening to the words, when if fact she to almost has it memorized. She is smart for her age!!

There all mine for eternity

What do you say to brides that stop to tell you how beautiful your children are? They should be paying attention to their photographers but instead here come my children and they look just beautiful. We were not only stopped my brides but everyone who we walked by commented on my children. Of course Scot and I were just beaming!! We know that our children are beautiful but it never hurt to hear it from strangers. The Wedding itself was just a great reminder of us being sealed for time and all eternity. I think that Scot and I took more from the ceremony then the Bride and Groom did. It was just exciting day for the Peacock children to see in the spring the Temple that their parents were sealed at. Sage kept telling me that she is excited to dress up like a Princess one day and come to the temple to get married. She keep asking Jake if he would play "be married at the temple with her." Oh course Jake reply was typical for a 8 year old "Yuck Sage you do not play married with your sister." I would not change one thing with my perfect little angels!! Many people joke about "hey do you want my kids, I don't." I will never say that, I would not give them to you for all the money or materials in the world, they are mine for eternity and I could never be more proud.

My girls!!!

Tender little ears with a great big heart!!

Jake had a baseball game tonight and they lost by one point. It was hard to lose because we were victorious on the last game by one point!! When you are on the losing side it hits you hard, even more so when you think it is your fault. As a mom I yell from the bleachers and I yell loud, I have got some good lungs on me. I always think that Jake can not hear me because he has his catchers helmet on. I see where I think that he can do it all by himself and I do not understand the rules of the game. So I yelled to run the ball across the plate and tag the player by himself instead of the pitcher coming in ever so slowly like they have been to assist Jake when the ball is fouled and the player on third base is sneaking home. Jake heard ever word that I yelled and came up to Scot after the game was finished and told him that it was all his fault. Scot look down and could see him start to cry and asked Jake what he was taking about. Jake so sadly stated "I should of gotten the players out when mom yell to get them out. It was all my fault." Scot pulled him aside and told that Mom was just yelling, that she did not know what she is talking about. The rules tell you to throw it to the pitcher who should be coming in to assist you during a foul in the game. Scot told him how great he played and that them losing had nothing to do with Jake way of playing the ball. He throw excellently and caught great, and most proudly he had one of the best hit of the game. It flew over second base and he brought three player home and also he stoled second, third and proudly home. I just need to remember and know that Jake little ears are so tender and he hears me when I am anxiously yelling things that do not always make sense. He looks up to me and wants to always do his best for my sake. I can not tell you of what a great kid I have. I could of not asked for a betters first child, son, and someone that our daughters look up to. He sets such a great example for not only his sisters, but for me and his Dad. He is intelligent, has great common sense and he is a handsome guys who is already stealing young girls hearts. He smiles and I just melt as a mother. Jake I love you and am so proud of all your accomplishments. I could not of ask for anything better for my first child, you have paved a path for your sibling to follow and it is a great path, I am just proud to be your mother.

Mom
