Mind the gap. A phrase coined for the London Underground to warn passengers about the gap that exists between the station platform and the train. It is a real danger. The caution is needed to protect people. In Relief Society today our lesson was on Sister Barbara Thompson’s General Relief Society talk, “Mind the Gap.” […]
Soft Onion Breadsticks
I love when my daughters take their turns cooking. They aren’t afraid to try new recipes. My oldest made these to go along with Chicken Rice Soup. The aroma was heavenly! Soft Onion Breadsticks (from Taste of Home) * 3/4 cup chopped onion * 1 tablespoon canola oil * 1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry […]
Our Saturday Morning
Right now (9:19 am) . . . I’m sitting on the couch nursing Hershey while checking blogs on the laptop. Truffle is practicing the piano playing the simplified version of “Mrs. Darcy” from Pride and Prejudice. Fudge is learning to crochet and has made about 2 feet of single crochet stitches with her tongue sticking […]
Through Heaven’s Eyes
One of my all-time favorite cartoon/musical movies is Prince of Egypt. I love it for the music: breathtaking voices, phenomenal instrumentation, soul stirring lyrics. We’ve been playing this song, “Through Heaven’s Eyes” several times each day this past week. The lesson it teaches to “look at your life through heaven’s eyes” is powerful. We are […]
Paper Snowflakes
The weather, like a negligent parent, still threatens but doesn’t follow through. We decided to make our own snowflakes instead, albeit a little non-traditionally. Get some paper, any size. We used leftover packaging paper that came yesterday stuffed around a special treat I’ll post about later. (There was a bit of sunshine yesterday after all!) […]
Marriage – What’s important to you?
“The family is ordained of God. Marriage between a man and a woman is essential to His eternal plan.” The Family Proclamation, paragraph 7. In trying to decide where to start the topics on “the family” for Wordfull Wednesdays I figured the beginning was the best place. To give you a heads up, the next […]
Haze
Today has been a gloomy sort of day.The sky was overcast creating a grey, sullen landscape.Clouds rolled over the mountains from the east, threatening to storm.I really, really hope it will.Rain or even snow would be nice.I like it when it storms.I want to curl up with a good book,or lay under a make shift […]
Be the ONE
It only takes one. One person to make a difference in the life of another. At times, when we look at all that is wrong in the world, we feel lost. Where do we start? There is so much that needs to be done! We can’t possibly help everyone but we CAN help one. Have […]
Learn the States Postcard Swap
This year we’ve been studying the states and capitals for geography with the four youngest girls. We are also covering U.S. History. To supplement our study of the states and have a little fun in the process we decided to join the “Learning the States Postcard Swap” hosted by Our Adventures in Education. We still […]

Wordfull Wednesday: My Family
“Marriage between a man and a woman is ordained of God and that the family is central to the Creator’s plan for the eternal destiny of His children.” (The Family: A Proclamation to the World, paragraph 1) Hmmm…where to begin? I feel like so much is known about our family already. What’s left to share? […]

Of mud and socks
Had one of those days. Walking in to church, Special Dark fell and knocked his head so we walked into the chapel with a goose egg on his forehead. Looked down to notice he also had on one John Deere sock and one white sock and MUD on his pants and shoes. Oh joy. © […]
