  • I took Tim's parenting advice and I'm now in the foyer with my 5 year old who apparently doesn't want to keep his hands to himself. Thanks for the parenting advice Tim!
    "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

We don't even have carpet or fabric on our walls.

              It is entirely relevant. You are not sharing facts or observations, but opinion. In doing so, any foundation you may possess (or lack, as it were) which lends more or less credibility to your opinion is absolutely relevant.

                Today however there's a young family behind me that has two children that have no volume control. The dad said, just now, "it's nice to be reverent". I turned around and said, "it's nicer to teach some manners or at least take them out. I can't hear myself think."

                They looked stunned but too bad.

                        • Wifi in our building for all.

                          Previously...locked down tight. Had to have individual MAC address per device added to the wireless router.

                          All it took was one visiting Member of the 70 to not be able to use his iPad or iPhone. He wasn't happy with our "higher law".

                          1 month later...wifi!

                            • I was scolded today by the Primerica Prez.

                              By way of background, the phrase "fold your arms" is ambiguous. Technically, we are crossing our arms, not folding them. So now when we are asked to fold our arms, I try to comply literally. I extend my arms in front of me, palms up, then fold them back towards me as though I were trying to touch my shoulders. The problem (i guess) is that all my CTR 6 students are now doing this, as well. Today we were asked to fold our arms for the opening prayer and our entire row of 7 kids had their elbows up and hands on shoulders. They were also laughing. I think it bothered the hostess or whatever she is called. The one the leads all of the singing.

                              after the singing hour, she told me that "we have to try to set better examples for the kids." she also said that the example starts with the teacher.

                              Ps on a higher note, I have now memorized all the verses of "Nephi's Courage," which is an awesome tune.

                              • Primary is supposed to be serious, DDD.

                                You probably never learned that by going to Primary as a kid so I'm glad they are teaching you that now.

                                "The hostess" LOL.
