"Family home evening brings my family together and helps me grow closer to my Heavenly Father."


This was Faith's part for the primary program today in Sacrament. She did such a good job and memorized it. Me and Doug sat and smiled. She waved to us with a HUGE grin on her face three times. It made us laugh. Every time the children stood up to sing, we could see her enunciating the words and really opening her mouth. She knew most of the words and she did it with a smile on her face. I was beaming. I was thinking maybe I should get her into a childrens choir -- she seemed to be enjoying herself so much. When Malik finally caught sight of his sister, he started giggling and pointing, saying,"There's Faith! I see her!" I had to hush him a few times, but he was excited. It wasn't the first time she was up there, but it makes me happy to think that she is learning this wonderful Gospel with every primary song she learns, every Sunday school lesson, every good example she sees, every family home evening, every prayer...

the small things add up.

we had our program today too and i was thinking how fun it will be to have my child up there (unless he just acts crazy the whole time! haha) anyway- faith is so, what's the word i am looking for?- i guess wonderful. :) she is. she is a good, smart, talented, happy and helpful little girl. she always seems so grown-up and always says the cutest things. you and doug have done so well!
