What have I done for someone today?
Have I done any good in the world today?
You will never regret a kind deed done to someone in need.

What was that?

We had just listened to a lesson from Benjamin for Family Home Evening. Domonique got up to offer the closing prayer. We were all reverent as she talked to Heavenly Father for us. Then we heard her say, “Please bless the ding dongs.” I have to admit there were a few snickers after that. At the end of the prayer I laughed out loud. Everyone else laughed or smiled. I knew she was talking about the Hostess Ding Dongs that were in the cupboard but it sounded like she was referring to the family as ding dongs. At least she was asking Heavenly Father to bless us.

Eat her up!

We have had this activity center since Ben!
All my kids have played in it!
All my kids have fallen asleep in it!
It is sort of a safe place for the baby - 
siblings can't quite get to them.
