Maddie had her Christmas Program at preschool. As we got ready for the program she put on a red velvet dress and we did her hair in pigtails. She then told me she had to put on her cute eyes so she fluttured her eyelashes and then looked up at me. She is adorable and loves to use that to her advantage.

After the Program Grandmommy took us out for lunch. She went into the play area while we waited for our food. When we all sat down to eat she told us that there was a boy in the play area who told her that she was beautiful. He made quite an impression upon her. Boys always have a great influence upon us women even when we are only 4.
"However,
Israel of old failed to keep the covenants, and as a result the Lord
was displeased with them and calamities befell them.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in this day is a covenant-making people."
--Israel
of old failed in keeping their covenants with the Lord. They were
punished and not allowed into the Promised Land. We too make and have
made covenants with our Heavenly Father. If we do not keep these
covenants we will have blessings taken from us. I think today it is on a
more individual basis rather than a whole nation. But then I look at
our country and see us loosing our blessings because of our wickedness.
It may not be quite as immediate as the old House of Israel but it is
there.
My darling daughter, you are one who lives with and by the Spirit. Our prayers are for you daily.
