TOUCHED, MUDPIES, AND GOLIATH


TOUCHED - Our Relief Society lesson today was about Mothers and Daughters. We had a great discussion about how the world views mothers/woman vs how the church views mothers/woman. After that discussion, we shifted to "How can we be good examples and influence and love our children and the children of others?" My friend Sarah answered by saying that whenever she thinks of someone who is a good example to children she said she thinks of me!!????? I was completely taken of guard and completely touched. It is no secret that I ADORE children and love to make them smile but never did it cross my mind that others even noticed. Thank you Sarah.

MUDPIES - The last couple of days, Alysha has been talking about mudpies. For the most part, and this is a terrible confession, I just nod my head and say a couple of "oh ya"s and "um hum"s and that's that, not really knowing what she is talking about. At breakfast this morning she mentioned that there were two mudpies on the fence. Huh??? I looked out the window and saw two MAGpies. So cute.

GOLIATH - In sacrament meeting today, Trentan drew a circle with two lines coming out the bottom and a line coming out of each side. He had attempted to draw a human!! Good job!! I asked him who he was drawing and he said, "Goliath". So grateful to primary teachers who have the patience to teach the little three year olds. They learn more than you think!

THINGS I LEARNED THIS WEEK

1. Given the right circumstance, my nephew Cammy CAN sit still and be quiet.

2. Nathan never has, and never will, noticed when I change my hair.

3. Little boys will try to pee ANYWHERE.

4. Nathan not only gets sleepy when he takes Benadryl, he gets CRANKY.
