Every Monday night our family holds Family Home Evening. Sometimes on these nights we just go out as a family like to the swimming pool or to a movie, but most Mondays we just do it in the comfort of our home with a prayer, primary song, lesson, game, and then treat.
Tonight our lesson was taken from the Friend. A magazine printed by our church made specifically for children. The article I chose to talk about for the lesson is entitled, "Heavenly Father Loves You." By Elder Uchtdorf (A latter day apostle of Jesus Christ). Since my daughter is 2 almost 3 I started to tell her how much Heavenly Father loves her (oh and we held family home evening tonight outside starting with a dinner picnic). As I was trying to explain how much he loved her, she laid down on the blanket and yelled, "look a star!" Then the lesson turned into all the things Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ created for us because they love us. We ended with a family walk trying to name all the things Heavenly Father created for us.
My heart began to feel so happy during this because I felt so blessed. Sometimes I feel like these lessons are more for me than her. Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ created and provided this beautiful world for us to live on.
Love,
