We usually have a tradition of having Dixie Waffles every conference Sunday with eggs, and Italian sausage. Very yummy.Sharlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16910025559186077648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14756045.post-302360700357078792010-03-30T09:48:44.325-05:002010-03-30T09:48:44.325-05:00We have little rubbermade containers for each kid ...We have little rubbermade containers for each kid that we fill with treats, drinks, coloring pages, a new box of crayons, stickers, lined paper, pencils, glue, scissors, envelopes etc. They can then listen and be entertained and they don't have to get up for anything. (We make them potty right before, so even that isn't a good excuse. We also talk about King Benjamin and how when he wanted to teach his people about the things Heavenly Father wanted them to do they built tents with the door facing his tower so they could here him. We do that the FHE before Conference and then on Friday night we build a tent with the door facing the tv. The kids watch from inside the tent, with pillows and blankets, and that makes it much more exciting. Another thing that my mom told me about when our kids were still really tiny is to lead by example. We tell them how important it is, and that they have to be reverent so we can all hear, then Troy and I have our notebooks out writing things down, and they can see that we are serious about it, and it makes a big difference, you would be surprised. It think it's also good to start young. The first few are going to be hard, but as they grow they will figure it out, and it will build their testimony.Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05855429302508533900noreply@blogger.com
