Rowley's: Little Lambs

A Smile for Today!

Lexie was the last one at the dinner table. She tells me, "Mom, if I'm not at the table, don't get mad at me. It's my body's fault. This food is just so delicious that my body just wants to dance."

Lexie was opening a package that had wires and plastic tags through the cardboard. She says, "Those Darn Chinese! They make it so hard to get into these things!"

In Relief Society I recieved a handout with a piece of licorice attached. I gave the licorice to Lexie. She says to me, "Do they always give you licorice at Relief Society?" I answer, "No."
She says, "Just when you been good, Huh?"

Little Lambs

I think it is funny when I tell people from back home that I go to Bethleham Lutheran Church when they know, or knew that I am, or was a very active LDS member. It catches them by surprise and they try to hide that surprise in their already wide-eyed expression. They really don't know what to say, and usually all that comes out is, "Ok."

Yes, once a week I take Samantha to Little Lambs at the Bethleham Lutheran Church. It basically is nursery during the week. The Mom's hang and visit for the first half hour while the kids play with toys, then we clean up, pull out a parachute for all the kids to sit on, and a bible story is read. After the 2 minute bible story we play games with the kids and the parachute. The kids love it and it is good for us Mom's to visit. When it started at the beginning of the year the only Mom's that were there were 7-8 from my LDS Ward. I think it is funny that the LDS mom's are funding the Little Lambs. There has been another mom with her two kids from BLC that has joined now, along with a new instructor.

These pictures are from Valentine's. We brought treats and let the kids exchange Valentine's.

And just so you all know, I am still a very active member of the LDS Church. I love the Gospel. I know it is true. And I know that "Jesus Loves Me" :).
