Maddi and Kami (my niece) have been struggling w/ a few girls @ school. I have been talking w/ Maddi quite a bit about doing unto others as we would have them do unto us. So last night I gave a lesson on loving one another for FHE in hopes that I would be able to teach Maddi & Kobe that Jesus Christ has taught us how to forgive and love one another. And I know that it is not always easy to just walk away and that Satan is always working on us. But if we strive to be more like Christ that we will be blessed for doing so, and also that the best place to learn to love one another is in our very own home. This was a great lesson for me as well, because I know that there are alot of times that I am quick to judge and speak before I think. And I hope that I will be able to be a better example to my kids and those around me as I try to be more like Christ.
Then I thought it would be fun to frost a few cookies. After we were done we took them around to my visiting teaching ladies and then also to gp. & gm. Hales. And YES James is having the time of his life:) But for some reason he just hasn't got posing for the camera down, so his eyes are closed:) LOL But we love him anyway!!
