Our Little Sadie..............

This poem was written by a friend of Lynee's.

More to come!!!

Our Fathers’ Hands

A gift we received on a cold winter day,
Two precious baby girls were coming to stay.
Identical hearts that beat strong as one,
A bond so divine, twill never be done.

Mommy and Daddy, their number one fans.
So recently cradled in our Fathers’ hands.
They’d learn and they’d grow, they’d take their first steps,
In their sweet mothers heart to immeasurable depths.

Bouncing blonde girls, giggles and smiles.
A blessing from heaven, on lone for awhile.
Our sweet baby Sadie, our strong lil’ Capri,
Adorable gems in our family.

Now Heavenly Father has a plan of His own,
Sadie’s sweet time, a test that was done.
So sweet baby Sadie, so precious and sweet.
Now in her glory at her Fathers feet.

The veil now a mirror, one heart on each side
A legacy of love…eternal, divine.
Two warriors of Light to help us each day,
To cheer us, to guide us, to prepare us a way.

One at our side to still hold our hand,
One with her wings, our hearts in her hand.
So this one way mirror, with Sadie and Capri,
Will continue to bless the Fife family.

Now wrapped in His arms and clothed in His glory
She’ll soar to new heights, a star in His story
On Heavenly plains, she’ll take her new stand,
For she’s once again cradled in our Fathers’ hands.

With Love, Mandi Taylor

October cold has arrived!!

October arrived and it let us know that winter is approaching!! It has been beautiful with all the fall colors. I love this time of year. We get our wood burning stove going and get to enjoy the fire!!! Conference was wonderful. We are so blessed to have the opportunity to listen on the internet whenever we want. To think we use to have to wait till it come out in the next ensign. So far so good for Zermatt. We have mixed emotions about the winter. When we get our first snow storm Darin loves it and then by the time we are two weeks into snow he is ready to pack up and move to a warmer place. He has been looking for a bigger snow blower!! Bigger means less work!!! The kids are all doing well. I am homeschooling Phillip for awhile....he has been sick and we are trying to get him better. It has been very interesting. Wow what a 6th grader can teach you. (Out of the mouth of babes!) We hope that you are all well!! Take Care and come and visit us in Midway!!!
