Tori, you and Sei are amazing. You have a wonderful, strong, beautiful family.

(and STOP IT with the newlyweds upstairs thing! hahahahaha, seriously — you are among my favorite neighbors EVER.)

I am sorry 2009 sucked so bad! I can’t imagine the lawyer bills. We are in a lawsuit right now and just our first retainer about made us vomit. You can’t be expected to be grateful for a trial that the exes are putting you guys through. They seem to take pleasure in raking you guys over the coals. I wouldn’t be thankful either, but I am glad you see it’s brought your family closer. And you know what? Later in life, someone you admire will need your comfort when they go through something similar… you’ll know the right things to say to comfort them. You are being refined, Tori. Heavenly Father is just preparing you for great things!

Oh, tori, you are wonderful. You are so right–our trials do make us stronger. In our RS lesson on Sunday, there was reference to a quote by Pres. Kimball about how in “the Grand Council we learned the purpose for our progression: to have a fulness of joy. However, we also learned that some would be deceived, choose other paths, and lose their way. We learned that all of us would have trials in our lives: sickness, disappointment, pain, sorrow, and death. But we understood that these would be given to us for our experience and good. If we allowed them to, these trials would purify us rather than defeat us. they would teach us to have endurance, patience, and charity.”

You are learning a great deal through all of this, and your decision to choose to be able is the right one.

And we all know you are RAD ; )

My husband’s ex-wife only tried crap the first 3 months we were married and then I finally set her straight. Thankfully my husband had full custody of his son when we got married, so I didn’t have to worry about that nonsense. We did have to sign court papers about 6 years into our marriage so his ex-wife’s new husband could adopt her little girl, which had my husband listed as her father on the birth certificate, even though he wasn’t. She had an affair and got pregnant by another man, and my husband (at that time her husband) went ahead and raised that little girl for two years while trying to get her to go to marraige counseling. She wouldn’t and finally he realized there was no hope for their marriage. He made sure though that he got full custody of his real son when they divorced. I had never been married or had children before I met my husband so that wasn’t an issue.
I know alot of people that go garbage like you’re going through though. I just don’t think the ex’s get it. They don’t get what they are doing in effect is really going to hurt their future relationship with the kids when they become adults.

I so wish I could make the exes go away. It annoys me that they only care about themselves. I still think that the twins could get better dance lessons for less money in Texas. I also think it’s ridiculous that she wants you to pay it all. I have no words for your ex. He wouldn’t understand them anyway. You have to have the ability to put yourself aside and put your kids first to understand what I would say to him.

I continually think how blessed your kids are to have you and Sei. Life would suck for them without you all.
