Tell me what you think.......

I finally had the chance to catch up one some old blogs and also found some new ones.

I wanted to have you guys take a look at this other blog and tell me what you think? It is the kind of blog we love to hate. It is a woman that is a stay at home mom with a full time nanny. THAT kind of mom. She has a new car, a big beautiful home in a fancy area and they travel first class. I am talking limo's and private jets (since a few of you were asking after my pictures...I thought this would be interesting). You know the type, they have cleaners and gardeners. I think you will find it enlightening and would be interested in your input. We can talk about it tomorrow.

Really, check out the link HERE .
I will leave you of a few pictures of Family Home Evening the other night until then. I think this will be a very interesting discussion. You won't want to miss it (and I want your opinions....)....
Oh, for those readers not familiar with Family Home Evening, it is a program in our church where we take one night of the week (usually Monday) and spend it together as a family. We like to make this night different than other nights, so we tend to structure it differently than other evenings (since we are all home together all the time anyway...we haven't hit the phase where the kids are gone all the time yet). We have a little lesson (about 2 minutes... usually "Be Kind" or "Don't hit your sister"). Then we have an activity (this time we made crowns) and a treat (the kids take turns choosing, shopping for and helping make the treat). Pretty easy stuff, but fun. We also open and close with a song and a prayer. There you have Family Home Evening 101

I, too, have finally had a chance to catch up on some blogs from back in the day, and can I just say - I think you are such a great mom...

...even if I do hate you just the tiniest little bit for having a nanny, house cleaners and a gardener. ;)
