87/365

Today I actually learned something in church. Most days its just a lot of running around chasing kids or trying to keep them reverent.  Today, we had a cute senior missionary speak to us in Sacrament Meeting.  He told the primary kids that they were right where their Heavenly Father wanted to be at that moment.  As I thought about that, I changed my attitude about church.  Yes I'm chasing kids for 3 hours. Yes, I spend more time looking at coloring books and passing out treats than I do listening, but I am here.  My kids are here.  We are where we need to be on Sunday's. It gave me a clearer perspective on the importance of being there each week.
Thank you for the little kick in the behind.


We also had a great lesson tonight from dad.
The kids learned about honesty.
Brian told them that when we aren't honest, it's like we are getting tied up tighter and tighter and it's very hard to get out of the ropes of Satan.  We need Jesus to "cut through" the ropes that bind us.

The kids loved the object lesson.
(I love Avery's face. She's listening to every word Brian is saying. So cute)
