Scripture Stories


This afternoon I went upstairs to check on what the kids were doing-they were being very quiet. When I paused outside the door to listen I heard Isaac telling the story of Jonah and the Whale to Ella. Some memorable lines:

Isaac: "He was trying to run away from Heavenly Father. That's bad huh?"

Ella: "Then he got stuck out in the ocean?"
Isaac: "No, the people threw him out of the boat!"

Isaac: "And then he decided to be good and the whale spit him out."

It's so great to know that things are sinking in and that these kids are understanding some of the things that we talk about and then they share it and teach others. My testimony grew today hearing his.

or not...

...back to the grind. They just called another snow day. Sigh...

Another Snow Day


Yet another snow day was called today. Luckily Benji had the day off from work, so he decided to take the kids sledding. It was a drenching snow, but the kids had a blast! Back to the grind tomorrow...
