On Sunday we had Abe’s team member, Paul, and Paul’s girlfriend, Kiva, over for dinner. I was on my period and really struggling to get everything cleaned and cooked on time, and I told Abe we can’t do anymore of these dinners.
But when Paul and Kiva arrived, I forgot all of my aches and pains. They were so delightful and interesting. We couldn’t stop asking them questions about their amazing childhoods. Paul shared a lot of his homeschooling experience, and Kiva grew up on a mountain ranch in rural Idaho.
When they left, we had an FHE that my mom and the girls had worked very hard on. I should have taken pictures of Mary, who wrote and drew an entire book about the plan of salvation. Each stage of the plan had a full page picture of a wrapped gift preceding it–to show that each part of God’s plan is a gift. She also conducted the opening song. We love seeing her in her element, which appears to be teaching.
