Michael is a lot of fun. He walks around outside pointing at dead bugs and saying EWWWW! Samantha was so sweet yesterday. I had assigned her to clean the playroom and she spent well over half an hour reading books to Michael. He was in heaven.

The Infinite Atonement, (illustrated Edition), by Tad R. Callister
pg. 298--"Each week a feast is served at sacrament meeting. Speakers, music, and prayers are integral parts of this meeting, but they are not the main course. The music might be discordant, the speakers monotonous--and yet those who come to the sacrament table hungry still can be filled. Any man or woman who comes to sacrament meeting hungering and thirsting for spiritual food will find refreshment and nourishment for his or her soul."
I can always benefit from a spiritual feast but I know that when I go to church my soul needs to be spiritually fed but is not in the right frame of mind. I am preoccupied with the way my children are acting or not acting, what I look like, what we are having for dinner after the meeting, the cheerio that was smashed into the carpet, etc. I am going to try harder to have a better morning that allows me the right mentality to listen to the sacrament, remember my Savior and be spiritually filled.
pg. 299--"It must be difficult if not impossible to genuinely reflect upon the Savior's life and simultaneously do evil. That would be tantamount to asking someone to step forward and backward at the same time. Each time we pause to meditate upon the Savior, we take a spiritual step forward."
