Aaron Jr and I went to Washington state for Easter weekend. We went up to visit my friend, Ben. We spent Saturday decorating eggs, and playing around on their farm. We had a blast. It was so much fun.
Ben helped Aaron collect eggs from the hens. Aaron had a blast being on their farm and seeing the animals.

I had to include this photo. Aaron Jr is always so quick to go from crying... to smiling when I ask him to... even for a photo. I can learn a lot from this little boy of mine. It is not quite so easy for me to go from crying to smiling... but I will work on that.
Thanks to Ben and his family for the fun weekend. We had a blast.

this makes me Smile!
You deserve all the happiness. Good for you, glad you had a nice weekend.
YES. I've been wondering when Heavenly Father was going to send someone wonderful into your life!!!! Seriously, everytime this year that I have come to your blog, I have hoped it would be about this...that you've moved forward and that a wonderful young man has come into your life.
SO SO Stinkin happy for you and Aaron Jr.
You deserve much happiness!
Thanks for sharing!! My first thought was,
FINALLY!
Leslie, you deserve every bit of happiness that comes your way. Thank you for sharing your time with Ben... he seems like a great guy, and I love farm boys. :)
Showing Heavenly Father you're willing to open your heart and move forward is such a positive thing to do. We can never experience love and happiness without being willing to take a risk. Good job taking a risk.
Whatever happens, you deserve love and happiness and peace. My wish is for you to have a boring, not-very-dramatic life with someone who loves you and little Aaron. It will come.
I love you and am proud of you.
What a fun place for an Easter Egg hunt, on a farm! It looks like you had a great time.
We still pray for your happiness.
Love you.
Chasing chickens sounds like a blast, for adults and kids! So glad you had a great time. It's sounding repetative after reading all the other comments, but you really do deserve all the happiniess in the world!

I was so glad to open your blog today and read that you are dating again. So many times when I've read your blog it's reduced me to tears for the sadness that you've felt. I'm happy you are able to grasp some happiness now. Whatever happens with Ben, it will be a good thing if eventually you and Aaron find a man to share your lives with. Good luck. Heavenly Father loves you and is watching over you! Trust your instincts!
So happy for you :) Oh and he's such a cutie!!! haha

I have been a silent reader of your blog for quite some time. I am always touched by your story. This post brought me to tears. Thank you so much for opening your heart and sharing your story. I love being tuned into your world.
