My Lesson on Sunday

This Sunday I taught the lesson in Relief Society. It turned out pretty good. When talking about finding Eternal Truths in things outside of the church or religion I showed part of a Movie Madi and I watched a few weeks ago. I thought I would Post it here. A Little Princess, is an awesome movie for young girls to see. The part I showed in the lesson starts around 5 minutes in.



One of the sisters was sad that I did not go any further with the movie. Her favorite part is in this clip when the girls wake up. Watch to see the surprise that is waiting for them!

Some Sunday Night Fun!

Last night as I was trying to get dinner ready I hear a loud crash from the front of the house. I heard a call out "Everyone is all right!" Will was standing in the middle of the room laughing. I started to go about my business when Will calls out"Mom come here and look at this." Of course my mind goes to what have you broken of mine now. I wall over the the desk where Will is standing looking at his father lying on the floor, pointing and laughing. I told Mike to hold on while I got the canera. And then I got this awesome shot!

Conversations from the Van #2

Today was a weird day. Mike got picked up for work. The kids walked to school and I was able to stay home and get some cleaning done. And I rearranged the living room to make room for the Christmas tree. So I did not shower or change into clean clothes. So when we had to drive to Findlay to pick up Mike from work he ask if we could come in the front to pick up some things. So ranting with the children in the car I said; "Great, one day I don't shower or change my clothes we have to go into the office!"

Will from the back of the van says: "You kind of look pretty!"

Madi then replys: "Kind of?" All snotty like.

Will: "No, she is really pretty. I want to marry her. But I can't because I am not old enough to be married. And you are already married, urg, to my father."

Isn't that just the best. Sometimes he calles me Love, its so funny. He really is a great kid!

My Turn on Earth

I emailed Carol Lynn Pearson back on Novembe 9th this is what I wrote:
Our family recently bought the DVD My Turn on Earth. I thought it would be a good video for my daughter, who loves music and acting and who was planning on being baptized soon. We watched it together as a family one night. The next morning my 6 year old son was up early and was watching the video again. When he returned home from school he played it again. This evening I was taking my mother to the airport (she came into town for my daughters baptism.) My husband called to let me know how things were at home and informed me that he was watching the dvd again. He is just thrilled to watch it again and again.

We have also read some of your parables and enjoy them as well. Thank you!

Today she wrote back to me:

Thanks much for this, Tiffany. So glad your family is enjoying the DVD. And please tell them all I hope they all have a Terrific Turn on Earth!

Love,

Carol Lynn
