This year for Family Home Evening we are using the Preach My Gospel manual. Each month we study a different chapter and each week we have a different theme (if take the guess work out of planning for me). Anyway, last night Ross asked if he could teach the lesson for FHE. We decided it would be fun and funny to see what he would come up with, so we agreed. Ross began the lesson by writing this on the board. It says, "Preach My Gospel"
For the activity Ross had Spencer draw a picture of a missionary and Ross wrote," Missionaries- listen to the gospel!"
My favorite part of the whole night though was the memorization Ross had us do. He said, "Okay guys, everyone say what I say... let's get addicted to the gospel!" Oh my, I wasn't sure if I should laugh or cry- I decided to laugh because (as Sister Hinckley used to say) crying give me a headache.

Laura that is one of the funniest things I have ever heard and proves my point about the overuse of the word addiction in our society. Yesterday on the phone I asked Ross if he was addicted to the gospel and he said...Well, not so much but Spencer is..he has been baptized! I said, "So Ross, what is addicted anyway? He goes, "You know Gramma, it is when you are stuck like glue to something and it is stuck to you and you can't get rid of it!" Pretty good definition, don't you think?
