Am I crazy for wanting to blog someone elses kid??? This isn't just any kid though, this is my new nephew!!! Isn't he adorable??? He is my sisters baby boy and her first child. His name is Tanner Allan Coons. He was born on September 4th which happens to be his mommy and daddy's anniversary! Neat huh? He came 3 weeks early and surprised his mommy and daddy!! He is so perfect!My mom was down helping Corri with the baby and she had a spell (don't know what else to call it) again and was rushed to the hospital. As soon as I heard, I flew down to Arizona to be with my mom and to help Corri. Corri is such a good mom and Nate is a natural at being a dad. I loved just watching them tend to and talk to their new little one.
With everything that happened this past week, I have grown to have such a deeper love for family. I have always been a very family oriented person but there is something about your sister having her first baby and thinking that your mom might be leaving earth soon that puts everything into perspective. I am so thankful that my Father in Heaven has a plan for us and that he has given us an earthly family to be with. Wesley and I have amazing, beautiful children and we both are so blessed with amazing parents and siblings. I am most grateful to my Lord, Savior and Brother Jesus Christ who made it possible for all of us to be with Him in heaven again. This is so comforting when you think that you might be loosing someone so dear to you. Mom- I know that I have probably embarrassed you by adding all of this but I am so glad that you are ok. You are the most amazing person I know and I love you so much.

Amen.... a family is the best gift. Dont know where i would be without mine. Love ya Tiff, hope your mom is OK.
Make me cry why don't you!? I love you, Tiff and would have NEVER survived all of this if you hadn't come to my rescue. Thanks a lot!
P.S. Love the new background...cute!
Roni- I knew that you would be the one who could understand the most about the importance of family. You are amazing!
My mom is doing great. We are still waiting to hear back on the biopsy but she is back to normal, thank goodness!!!
Corri- I didn't do much at all. You are an amazing mom and I think you are doing an awesome job with Tanner!
Love you guys!
I can't believe that Corri is old enought to be a mom! The baby is sooooo cute! Good job Corri!
Sorry to hear about your mom. I hope she is doing better.
Amazing??? I'll tell you what amazing is. Amazing is a Mom that will get up at 4:00 every Sunday morning so she can get her family ready for church and leave by 6:30 in order to get the church by 8:30! Then staying the whole day in El Paso so that she can get her Visiting Teaching done and her husband can get his home teaching done. Amazing is being pregnant, in the YW Presidency, and having to drive all the way home alone every Wednesday night in the dead of winter when your cell phone only worked in a few areas. Amazing is being a PTO President that gives her heart and soul to the little community and not one soul shows up at the meeting, not even the principal or teachers or superintendent and she still just keeps on planning for the next meeting! Amazing is hanging in there when everybody else is ready to throw in the towel. I guess the most amazing thing I ever did was to have two wonderful daughters that are my best friends!!! Now that is amazing!
What a sweet testimony. Please tell Corri congratulations and we will be praying for your mom. Love you.
