A Productive Day!

I forgot to mention that when we returned home from the zoo and park it was time to go to work! Regan mowed the whole front lawn by herself which is pretty amazing for a girl her size! She was really proud of herself especially when DJ got home and complimented her work over and over! He is so excited to have a child old enough to help him w/ the huge yard! Morgan and Jordyn worked really hard picking all the weeds out of the flower beds and garden while I used the hoe and rake! They did all the bending over for me since that is not an option for me anymore! For family Home Evening we had an elderly widow in our ward come over and join us! The kids love having someone over for FHE and they are always better behaved which is a bonus! DJ gave a great lesson on "Hope" where he shared thoughts from the scriptures (particularly Lehi's Dream) and then a section from Preach My Gospel. It was such a great lesson and I plan to share some specifics when I get a few more minutes. We had a yummy dessert and then DJ and Regan took Sister Carson home! It was really a fun evening and the best part about it was that Kaleb actually paid attention even though he was playing with toys the whole time. He kept repeating everything DJ said while pushing his trucks around and when it came time for the songs, he sang right along with the all of us so I know that he is catching something. It is moments like this that make it all worth while!
