March Happenings

March 10, 2013: Annabelle was asked to share an experience of sharing the gospel in primary sharing time. She talked about her and Mylee telling their school substitute teacher about the church. Jonah was asked to share about prayer. He shared how some time ago, he was asked to give a talk in primary. He couldn't come up with anything. So he said a prayer. He thought to ask Mom, so he talked to me and I helped him plan his talk. Glad these kids are having good experiences!

March 13, 2013: Olivia loves to have a paint brush in her hand. She licks it, then brushes it on her face. Or along walls. Or whatever else is nearby.

March 23, 2013:
Finn: Soldiers wear shirtses and pantses and helmetses and coatses and capes. So let's go put it on!
Mom: But it's nap time.
Finn: Soldiers need naps and pillows, too. Soldiers have boatses and shipses and bedses. Daddy is a daddy soldier. Dadses go to workses.

March 24, 2013: Finn's talent for FHE was throwing a ball. When he does something neat, he likes us to say, "That was cool!"

March 27, 2013: Finn likes me to do "eenie, meenie, minie, mo" any time he has a choice. Especially choosing which underwear to wear. Spiderman? Hulk? Superhero? Badguy? Cars? Elmo? Fish? "Let's do meenie mo," he says. But he most often says, "No, not that one. Try again," until we finally get to the one he wants.

March 31, 2013: The visited Ames for Easter weekend. The girls all got matching dresses, sewed by Grandma Susan. Even the grown-ups girls Lizz, Emmeline and Heidi wore matching long dresses with jean jackets.
