Here are some photos of the kiddos practicing their head stands. I make them exercise for at least 30 minutes a day. Sometimes it is just running in circle races around the house and doing cartwheels and sommersaults. Today they started working on their strength. I thought they did pretty well! Daniel was doing no hands and everything. It was lots of fun to watch and instruct them. I may not be able to send them off to all sorts of lessons like basketball, gymnastics, or piano but I do my very best to teach them everything I know and help them to be strong so when they do choose what they want to do in the future they will be ready. It gives me great joy when I see them developing into great little people full of energy and life. I do my best to teach them, I pray that my efforts will provide for them a life full of hope and joy. I want them to be satisfied with who they are and who they can become. More than anything I want them to KNOW that they are children of God and that He loves them. I know it. I do my best to lead them, guide them, walk beside them to help them find their way. My best is going to have to be good enough.

  1. it is all about leading them, guiding them and walking beside them. you got that right Mari! Keep it up! You may be surprised to find out that the children are really the one's leading, guiding and walking beside us to help us find our way back to Heavenly Father. We are suppose to become as a little child, right? It makes sense...humble, meek, submissive, full of love, etc. Yes, a little child shall lead them home.

    I love the photos of sam and dan gaining strength. You are teaching them well. They will need physical strength as well as mental, spiritual and emotional strength to stand tall in these latter days. well done sister!
    love and hugs,
