Family Home Evening

Well, we managed to have Family Home Evening again tonight. We did a lesson about how God made animals and then Daddy and Mommy took turn pretending to be animals so the kids could guess what we were. It worked out well. Simple and good. Eventually I'll be able to add snack as well, but I haven't gotten my timing down on that one yet.

You know those ideas that sound FABULOUS at the time, but then later you wonder what you were thinking? This is one of them.) so I worked on Halloween costumes for FHE and Michael watched kids, lots of Spiritual growth! Hopefully, we will do better next week!; October 23, 2007 at 7:22 AM

Great Quotes

Said one well-known author: “Both abundance and lack [of abundance] exist simultaneously in our lives, as parallel realities. It is always our conscious choice which secret garden we will tend . . . when we choose not to focus on what is missing from our lives but are grateful for the abundance that’s present—love, health, family, friends, work, the joys of nature, and personal pursuits that bring us [happiness]—the wasteland of illusion falls away and we experience heaven on earth.”

Sarah Ban Breathnach as quoted by President Thomas S. Monson last General Conference of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

The Lord compensates the faithful for every loss. That which is taken away from those who love the Lord will be added unto them in His own way. While it may not come at the time we desire, the faithful will know that every tear today will eventually be returned a hundredfold with tears of rejoicing and gratitude.

Joseph B. Wirthlin (one of the twelve apostles of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints)
