Day 3 Get me to the Church on Time


Day 3:  Our really quick trip to Colorado did give us enough time to spend one night with our dear friends and attend church services with them the next morning.  After being in the car all day, staying up all night talking, and struggling to keep kids in foreign beds, getting the kids ready and to 9 am meeting on time was really a blessing.  We can't even do that when we are at home and church starts at 11am.  It was wonderful to enjoy the spirit of saints from other places.  In primary they were learning about being kind.  They asked my 6 year old what she would do if she had some toys she didn't play with any more.  They were going for the "give them to another child" kind of answer.  Instead they got "Ask my mom if I can have a yard sale!"  I happened to be in primary at that moment and couldn't decided whether to be embarrassed or proud of her thriftiness.  Yep, we are on a tight budget and we have resorted to a yearly yard sale to have money to tune the piano.  But what a blessing!

Did the Lord soften the hearts of your children today?
