Primary Rocks

I had just gotten home from a grueling afternoon of lunch with friends and an eyebrow wax.  I left the kids home alone.  By the time I got home I was a bit irritated at the 7 calls I had had from them asking how long until I would be home.  I finally arrived home and started barking out orders for them to clean up their messes.  There were a few dishes here and there and shoes all over the floor.  Nothing Major, but I was still just a little crabby. Then I walked upstairs to find this.Sidney had folded the laundry I had left on the bed. Leaving behind the service star she had gotten at primary last Sunday. Thank you to the primary presidency for helping me teach my children to serve others. Thanks to Sid for softening my very hard heart and for folding my laundry even though she had to touch the boys underwear which she informed me was very very gross!

That is so nice! I love (and hate) when my kids are the examples to me;) Way to go Sid!! I bet you made your mom's day.

That is awesome! And touching brothers' underwear...she deserves five stars!

Hurray! I spray painted those stars and made my mom sit and put dots on the ends of every word--a process which she could not grasp the point of. Anyway--long story--but that was supposed to be my sharing time and I was so sad not to be able to give it. I'm glad it went well, and at least sank into sweet Sidney's heart.
Love ya!
