Dinner at the Folks

So tonight we had dinner at the folks house.  It is a new thing set up for the third Sunday of the month.  Those of us living in Cedar gather together for dinner, dessert and a family home evening lesson.  Mother did one of her over the top FHE lessons and everyone left feeling like they were special.  It was a good one and she certainly raised the bar.  When it comes around to my turn for the lesson I am going to end up dropping that bar a great deal.  Oh my goodness gracious.  I'm thinking 5 minutes in a lesson from the Nursery manual - the best manual for quick and simple FHE lessons on the kids level.  I don't think I have the patience that mom has in order to even attempt as involved a lesson as that one.  Way to go mother.  It was a great lesson and it was fun to participate in and hear thoughts about each individual member of the family - I don't think I heard any mention of my extreme talents as a record keeper.  Hmmm, is there some sort of a message in that?  Well, that which we persist in doing becomes easier right?  Perhaps there is hope for my future ramblings and writings.  One thing is for certain - at some point one of these third Sunday affairs needs to include tacos and chocolate pudding cake.  We need more third Sundays.
