What a rare treat it was tonight! Connor reminded us that we needed to have Family Home Evening. He took care of the lesson, Carly led the song (I am a Child of God) and Abi offered the prayers.
Incredibly, the feeling in our home was quite calm and peaceful. Despite the fact that about 3 minutes into the lesson (Connor was reading one of the Bearnstein Bears books) we were all quite bored. Todd and I were entertained by the girls who were rolling around on the ground and Dakota who was just being his silly little toddler self.
I am so grateful that my children are still young enough to enjoy family home evening and even instigate it. How much longer will this last?

That's really sweet. I was never a Bearnstein Bears fan myself. :) Maybe that's where the boredom came from. I have fond memories of many past family home evenings: spiritual, entertaining, fun, funny, competitive (when we played games), and yes, even boring. I guess that's what FHE is all about!
