I think we need to move the trash bin...

We were getting ready for church Sunday morning and Cory comes into the bathroom...

Cory: Did you put Mitchel on the counter?

Me: Ummm No, why would I do that?

Cory: Well he's on the counter now!
Me: Serious?!

So we head out to see how this all came to pass. I got Mitchel off the counter and then asked him to show me how he got up there. And being the good little boy he is he sure did show me!

So Sunday morning started off with one Proud and Smart little boy!

Now I really need to relocate the candy bin :)

At least Mitchel is a good little boy to show you how to fix the problem! :); September 14, 2010 at 9:24 AM

Mothers

"Yours is the work of salvation, and therefore you will be magnified, compensated, made more than you are and better than you have ever been as you try to make honest effort, however feeble you may sometimes feel that to be. Do the best you can through these year, but whatever else you do, cherish that role that is so uniquely yours and for which heaven itself sends angels to watch over you and your little ones.... The very fact that you have been given such responsibility is everlasting evidence of the trust your Father in Heaven has in you... If you strive to love God, if you try your best to be the best parent you can bem you will have done all that a human being can do and all that God expects you to do....Remember, remember all the days of your motherhood: 'Ye have not come thus far save it were by the word of Christ with unshaken faith in him, relying wholly upon the merits of him who is mights to save.' Rely on Him. Rely on Him heavily. Rely on Him forever. And 'press forward with a steadfastness in Christ, having a perfect brightness of hop.' You are doing God's work."
