Great Weekend


Miriam had her final show of Stone Soup on Saturday.

We were so excited to have guests come watch with us!

Afterward, we had an Indian food dinner party.

Grammie and Papa got a hotel room and let us come swim in the hotel swimming pool.


We were so happy to have guests to watch Miriam in the Primary Program the next day.

All the kids were given a subject and told to write their own ideas and testimony.
Miriam's subject was Mothers nurture the family...

Miriam's talk:
"Mothers nurture the family. My Mom nurtures our family by keeping us healthy, by making sure we do the right things, and by helping us do stuff we don't want to do."

We couldn't help but but smile at her perfect description of what motherhood is, and the congregation couldn't help but laugh out loud at her earnest delivery. The laughing, unfortunately hurt Miriam's feelings as she didn't mean to be funny, and she began to cry. She has a wonderfully sweet teacher who was able to settled her down. She finished out the program, singing sweetly and trying to keep the little girl next to her from bouncy off the walls.

The whole day was wonderful, with a trip to the park for the kids with Papa, and my dinner turning out well (which isn't always the case with my cooking).

Thank you Mom and Dad and Mom and Dad for making our weekend so great!
