"You are not here to live a mediocre to average life; you are here to live an amazing life, a miraculous life. If it weren't for your challenges, there would be no miracles. You must do that which seems impossible, for it is only in the impossible that miracles are had." - author unknown, but very respected

FHE

We have the assignment "scribe" for FHE but we never really have anyone record anything in our family journal anymore, so maybe I'll just do it on here :).  Kelly was the scribe this week, but in case I forget to have her write about it, I'll just tell it myself.  Switch it if she does it.
Jack was the lesson this week.  We've been wanting to do our series of Baptism FHE's for a while now, since Luke is getting so close, so Nate just took over and taught that instead :).  We talked about bearing one another's burdens with pitcher of water and then holding everyone's "burdens" in your hands outstretched.  Luke was the first victim.  He was pretty tough though.  I love the analogy that things, ALL things, are tough if you hold on to them too long.  That we need to just let it go.  And in accordance with the Gospel- allow other people to help lift our burdens.  It's easier to have help.  I love that.  So I don't know what the rest of the lesson was like because Jack was.... tired.  I took him up to bed.  Nate said it went well. 
Charity was the treat, we had donuts :) mmmmmmm
I loved that Luke did Do As I'm Doing for the opening song :).
