Monday's Heroes


This is always one of the harder things I do because I have so many heroes for so many reasons in my life. I finally decided who they were today simply by who I have been thinking about the most. That narrowed it down to one family - the Carpenters in Kerrville, Texas. David and Jodi are a wonderful loving and caring couple. They are fabulous parents to their three children. We had the wonderful opportunity of getting to know them 9 years ago when they came to Utah with our oldest daughter, Carianne and her husband Carl. Jodi was beautiful and pregnant with Sam at the time. It was a wonderful visit and we were so happy to get to know them and include them as part of our family. When people talk about someone being filled with Christlike love - then the Carpenters are the epitomy of just that. They have been a blessing in our lives and everyone else's who has the privilege of knowing. We love them very much.

They are family now. I wonder if they regret their visit 9 years ago because of that. They can't get rid of the crazy Bailey family now.

There is no way that we regret that amazing visit . 9 years ago? I cannot believe it has been that long. We are so honored that you all include us in your beautiful family. We love you all. Thank you!
