Kiana: Is spending the long weekend in Boston visiting her friends (and the snow) there. This girl is savvy and independant.

Myla: Has been practicing her softball skills while KJ practices for spring baseball. She’s now hoping to be on the softball and golf teams this spring for high school!

KJ: Since being grounded from “technology” he has reconnected with his Rubiks cube, air soft guns, bike, and more – I just might not allow technology for a long time because I lOVE how he spends his time when grounded.

A portrait of my children (and puppy), once a week, every week, in 2015.

Kiana: She registered for her senior year classes this past week, and we are all in disbelief she will be a SENIOR!!!

Myla: Spent the entire week playing tennis and golf outdoors! Sixty degree temps in February.

KJ: Joined a new travel baseball team, and a new haircut all in the past week.

Sela: Since last September this girl has been requesting to quit dance. And as a parent, this is a tough situation for me, she is on a “company”

A portrait of my children (and puppy), once a week, every week, in 2015.

Kiana: After school. Talking about her new boyfriend.

Myla: What you can’t see: this list she made of her current three college choices touches the floor. It’s now hanging next to her bed – Should I say focused? Driven. Ambitious. Dreamer. Goal-setter. Is she really my child?

KJ: He’s been grounded from “electronics” for about two solid weeks now – so when he needs to use a computer for homework these days, you would think he’d won the lottery.

Sela: For those of you who are familiar with the Gateway mall in SLC –

A portrait of my children (and puppy), once a week, every week, in 2015.

Kiana: Had “Preference” on Saturday. This is a girls choice semi-formal in Utah. She had five couples in her group – all good friends, masquerade was the theme. They went to breakfast and ice skating on her day date. Then I took their pictures at our house, the group had dinner at Tepanyaki’s, went to the dance, and went to her friend Tatum’s house afterwards for S’mores and a movie.

Myla: Preparing an egg for her puppy. One at breakfast. One at dinner time.

Kiana: She is on her first official high school weekend trip with friends this weekend!!! She borrowed her dad’s truck to drive her friends and herself to southern Utah. Before she left I warned her about the overly zealous highway patrol that monitor I-15 between Northern and Southern Utah. Regardless of the warning, she got her first speeding ticket on the way to St. George on Friday. Live and Learn.

Myla: She’s currently playing indoor soccer, taking indoor golf lessons,

Kiana: On the go. On the go. On the go.

Myla: Chill-laxin. This puppy momma was taking a break… She has been AMAZING with her puppy this week!

KJ: This dude. He’s a smart, sneaky one. Preface: Dusty Rhodes and I don’t allow the kids to purchase apps, new music, movies, etc. unless it’s a special holiday or they have paid for it themselves. Yet, at times the kids (namely: KJ and the teens) are trying to buy more virtual stuff than they are allowed to.
