Last night before we headed home from Grandma Shelley's we found a quiet place for Steve to give the girls a blessing before starting school this morning. In Sunday School yesterday they ask how do you teach your children what the Holy Ghost feels like? Steve took the opportunity after the blessings on the ride home to ask the girls why they were crying after the blessing. Abby answered "Because I felt happy". Emily said "Because I felt like crying". Steve asked why did you feel happy Abby? "Because I think I was feeling the Holy Ghost." she said. I am so thankful for little opportunities to build up my girls testimonies. To help them remember that their Heavenly Father loves them and want to bless them and wants them to be happy. If we are doing good things the Holy Ghost can guide, warn and comfort us. Emily was having a little anxiety about starting 6th grade. Steve informed me that next year I will have a child in Jr. High. The girls were up and ready to go even after being up a little late. I made them pancakes shaped in the first letter of their name. Slipped an extra treat or 2 into their lunch with a cute little note. As always they were looking very cute and sassy. I told them they would be walking home from school everyday. I walked to pick them up from school today. It was too stinking hot.

Lindley so wanted to go with them. So I took the 2 little ones to the park to play with our Dinosaurs in the sand.
