"WHAT DOESN'T KILL YOU,WILL ONLY MAKE YOU STRONGER"

Echoing the words of my dear friend Lyla.......I've had a few rough weeks and as I've caught up in reading all my friends and fam's blogs,this one hit close to home.....It's funny how TIME can really heal a person's soul.....with a lot of help from my sisters....THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart.....I'm becoming a true believer in not necessarily sharing negative thoughts as much as good.inspirational thoughts...after reading my sister Jen's blog about letting Bad Apples fall where they may...I'm trying to find more creative ways to Vent my fustrations. I've decided to apply it to my everyday life and just in the short time I've noticed a major difference in how my day turns out,especially how my family reacts and mostly how peaceful I feel inside.....So, as I've been away from blogging for a while, I couldn't think of a better way to get back in to it than sharing with you all how thankful I am for the Trials in my life...there are way less trials than not and I'd like to mention a few things that I'm so Grateful for......

My Heavenly Father and Saviour Jesus Christ who have always been there for me..Always...and has had Never-Ending Mercy on my lil' soul.

My Precious lil' Boys..Kingston, Zion and SiuoSamoa..who bring so much JOY and PURPOSE into my life.

My loving family...All 17 of them plus Mom n Pops and of course my extended Wolfgramm and Tavo familia...my sisters especially who I can always count on to be there for me.

My Dear Sweet Friends... Carol T, Sarah T, Deb H, Lyla N, Vonda H, Alyssa T, Rhona P..all of you who have ever entered my life or crossed my path, I'm thankful for your friendships..

Having been born into the Only True Gospel on this Earth..The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints...What a Blessing the gospel has been in my life..

Temples...how grateful I am for these special,sacred places where my soul can seek refuge and rest from the weary's of the world...

My Ward family of the Westland 10th Ward...All the Service that has been rendered to me and my family ever since we moved here 6 yrs ago..has truly been a strength and testimony builder to me on many levels..

The fact that I'm still Alive and Well,considering all the terrible choices I've made in my short life...

For this Beautiful Earth I live on and the blessing of Freedom living in the United States of America....mostly to those men and woman who fight for my freedom in the Military..Thank You

For all the little things...a good working car, a warm house to call home, a job to feed my family, food, clothing, microwave, dishwasher, TV, my laptop, good books to read, music (can't live without), beautiful flowers and trees, oceans, lakes, animals, of course the Sun and Moon that give is warmth and light, stars (dreams are endless), my Tongan heritage, water....the list is infinite.....

Last but not least, I'm grateful for my husband Eli...who I truly believe was sent here to teach me how to be... Long-Suffering, Patient, Enduring to the End, Humble, to be a better Cook and most of all how to Love Unconditionally.........

Malo Aupito,
