Wow it has been a really long time hasn't it?

I thought about ditching blogger. LOL But...blogger has always been so good to me. And so have my friends that say they still check it even though I've been a total slacker.
Basically I have no clue what to write about, life has change quite a bit since my last post. I am currently trying to figure out where my life should go next. As some of you, well most of you know Tyler and I seperated over 2 months ago. Just recently I met with my stake president looking for advice and I've decided instead of waiting for him to come back around I need to take the step foward to divorce completely. Its been a hard decision, but I know that the Lord has comforted me and helped guide me to this decision. Whenever I doubt, or feel like just giving up on it all, I feel a voice inside of me saying "you know this is right Maren, keep trudging through"
I feel blessed to have my beautiful daughter and I want to make right by her. I want to make our lives wonderful and I want her to grow up healthy and happy and I want to do everything I can do to that. So there's that! A small little update!
I'm still working part-time as a nanny for a really great family nearby. And I will be heading to Iowa this week to visit my sister Kim and her family! I am very very very excited about that trip!
I will end with some pics from Easter and a few others.

I'm so glad to see that you have updated Maren! I'm sorry that you are going through such a hard time right now but I'm glad you are not in limbo anymore. That is a darling pic of Kirsten! ((((HUGS))))

Oh Maren.. (((HUGE HUGS))) I'm really glad to see you posting again. I'm also glad that you've made a step for *you and Kirsten*. :) Good for you!! She is sooo lucky to have wonderful momma like you. I have no doubt that she will grow into an amazing young woman. Have a great time in Iowa. I just drove thru there yesterday. ;-)

Hey Maren, I'd heard that life has been a bit rough for you lately. You are in my prayers. It's fun to read your posts and see the pics. Have fun at Kim's.

I'm glad you're finding some peace in the gospel to help you right now. My family was in limbo for a long time (years) before my mom came to the same conclusion as you have already reached. I hope you can get through this with lots of love and support of those around you! Hugs!

Maren, I heard about your separation through the grape vine. I'm so sorry to hear about that. I'm however glad to find that you are finding comfort and direction in the gospel and from church leaders. You are a strong womand and a wonderful mom, and your little girl and you will be ok, I know that.((((HUGS)))
