Valentine's Day!!!

My DEAREST readers!

Hello to you all from me, JESS!!!! Yes sadly I am having to write this all down on paper because the stinky doctors say that a laptop is not allowed into my room. :( But LUCKILY for me Becky is going to type the letter up EXACTLY as I write it on the paper.

I made her promise to do it. Anywhoo I am soooooo glad to be back and writing to all you loverly people. What isn't so loverly is that I am in a stinky hospital because of being too skinny for someone having TWINS!!!! I know right?! I just about peed my hospital gown when I found out! Derek and I are so EXCITED! We get a boy AND a girl in one shot! Holy Crap though I just realized we are going to need a bigger apartment because we could fit one baby barely, but now TWO babies are coming and oh my goodness that is going to be INSANE! TWO BABIES!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! Needless to say that I pretty much think Heavenly Father is amazing for blessing us with two of His children at the same time.

So yeah Nikki basically is totally my hero. I was not there when she beat the living daylights out of that creep, but I did get to see a brilliant re-enactment from my husband and brothers. Let me tell you I for one HATE HATE HATE guys who hit women and second I HATE HATE HATE when men abuse the priesthood. Derek says that he will most likely be excommunicated or something. I say "Amen" to that! Any man who holds the priesthood knows better than to use it as some sort of holding power over another person, you can't use the priesthood to take away someone's agency. Ladies NEVER let some stupid guy boss you around just because he has the priesthood. If he does, he isn't worthy of it. Derek would never try to assert his authority over me without any room for compromise. Now he does lead and guide and make decisions that I don't question, but that is because when he is praying about something I am right there with him praying and we both discuss the impressions we received and what direction we think we should take. It is a partnership, NOT a dictatorship.

If ANY guy is making you feel like you are less than a Daughter of a King, he is NOT worth it. Let me repeat...NOT WORTH IT!

So what is everyone doing for Valentine's Day? Becky is trying to convince Nikki to go out on a double date with her. Becky got asked out by Nikki's elder who baptized her....not Mayson, but the other one. Snap I know his name, but I can't recall it! Anyways we are trying to get Nikki to go out and have a non committal type of date you know? Nothing serious, just to get her out of the hospital and into the world. She hasn't left since I have been in here! Derek brought her suitcase and brings her stuff and sh is basically living here with me until I get out. Derek has to work and so do my brothers, so Nikki has been staying here to keep me company. I love her dearly, but she needs to get out.

Well I should be home by Friday of this week. *fingers crossed* I am WAY WAY WAY excited and THRILLED that I am doing better. I love you all and I am touched by all of your support and concern for us. We think about you all daily and we love hearing from you!

*MUAH*

Loves and fluffs,
Jess

P.S. I am going to try and get some sonograms up here for you all to see!
