Lesson Learned

Spencer has learned two things this week and taught me one big lesson.

What Spencer learned:

1. How to turn the tv off and on.

2. How to fold his arms and bow his head for prayer.

What Spencer taught me:

This morning when I was doing the dishes Spencer turned the tv off. He then said "Ut Oh." He then quickly folded his arms and bowed his head. I laughed at him and said jokingly "So, you think praying will get you out of trouble?"

The more I thought about it, the more I want him to learn that when he does make big mistakes he can turn to Heavenly Father for help to overcome anything.

Thanks Spencer for helping mommy learn something about teaching moments.

!!! Fire Power !!!!

So, when we got back home from Salt Lake on Sunday I called my sister who lives in Cedar to let her know we were back in safety. She said she had been at our lighting store and it smelled like something was burning. She looked around and didn't see anything unusual so she said not to worry.

When we got home the power was out. Apparently, it went out at 12:55, we got home at 7 or so. We sat in candlelight/by the fireplace (the only way we could heat our house at the time) for two more hours. Go figure!

Monday morning we came to work. We looked out the window to the back of our property and low and behold, a fire went down the weed alley along the whole back side of our building! Not only our building but most of the buildings on this two block street! No worries though, none of our property was damaged. I will take pictures and post them soon.

All I can say is thank you Heavenly Father for protecting us and our stuff! I know we were blessed for listening and watching all of General Conference, but these extra blessings that I usually take for granted everyday really were things I needed!
