Serving Others--#10 Planting Flowers for Mom

My mom has had lots of surgeries on her back and it hurts her a lot.  We didn't have any plants at our new house and my mom missed having flowers.  She had a hard time planting them because of her back.  I helped her plant a tomato plant, a bleeding heart plant and lots of small flowers.  They look very nice on our steps.

Pioneer Village--Provo

One of my favorite activities is learning about pioneers and how they lived.  My dad works a lot and sometimes he can't go to special activities with us.  He wanted to spend some extra time with us and I wanted to show him the awesome pioneer park.  My cousins like the pioneer park too, so they went with us.  We had a great time as a family.  It's important to spend time with our family and make memories.  I am grateful that even if my dad works a lot, he takes time to be with us.

Serving Others #5 Babysitting for Trek

Last week my Aunt KK and Uncle Jason went on a pioneer trek.  My mom babysat my cousins.  I helped a lot.  I helped my little cousins put on a fashion show for our stuffed animals.  We got scraps of material and made clothes.  We had a good time and my mom was really happy because it kept my cousins happy and busy for a whole afternoon.

Learning & Living the Gospel #3 The Holy Ghost

READING
John 14:16-17
Galatians 5:22
Moroni 10:5
Nephi 32:5

We began our Family Home Evening singing the hymn "Let the Holy Spirit Guide" (#143)
We talked about the gift of the Holy Ghost.  We read the scriptures and talked about the different jobs of the Holy Ghost.  They are to testify of truth, guide and comfort.  Then we drew out pieces of paper that listed problems on them.  Then we had to decide how the Holy Ghost could help us with that problem.
