Thought for the Day


"Oh, it is wonderful to know that our Heavenly Father loves us - even with all our flaws! His love is such that even should we give up on ourselves, He never will. We see ourselves in terms of yesterday and today. Our Heavenly Father sees us in terms of forever. Although we might settle for less, Heavenly Father won't, for He sees us as the glorious beings we are capable of becoming."

- Elder Joseph B. Wirthlin

Conversations on the Ride Home From School

E - "JACKPOT!" (a game we play by calling out every yellow car you see)
J - "Mom, what will you give me if I win? Candy?"
Me - confused "Win what?
J - "If I win at Jackpot - A dollar or candy or something?"
Me - "No Jake, I won't give you anything." mental sigh
J - "Well, then I'm not playing. What's in it for me?"
(yes, he actually said that) :)
E - "Jake, you can't always play for money and things. What if you are playing against a HoBo? He doesn't have anything to give you if you win."

Did that conversation really just happen?! Yep, you bet your bottom, it did!!"
