all kinds of families.

more about today later.

but in short, the above is a nice description of today.

i'm in love with life.

and in love with love.

and in love with my own family, obviously.

but also the wertz's.

they really are my second family.

which was mostly assumed at this point, yes.

but there's something about when it's said aloud.

when laur's mom freaked and said it so adamantly today,

i might have almost wanted to shed a tear or two.

out of love.

i love them. a lot.

and by extension, will. and his family.

i'm sooo glad i got to spend more real (more than quick second in a chapel) time with them tonight.

just by the random fact that i was there for a bit of the after-priesthood shindig.

and get to know them more. i love them.

{ p.s. shout out to hailey. i'm beyond ecstatic that i've finally met you in real life now.

you are adorable. and i kind of feel like i already know you. weird? probably. whatevs. i like it. }

anyways. this short preliminary summary of today is simply to quickly say:

there's nothing like being an adopted member into another family beyond your own. nothing.

the love in my heart is unbounded.

i'm sappy and cheesy.

c'est la vie.

they like it.

well, ok. so even if they don't. they accept it.

haaahaha.

"it's sooo slimming!"

"oh heyyyyyy. hey girl, heyyyyy."
