Last night's family night was one of those that I cherish. We all gave Miriam advise about the Holy Ghost and the spirit was strong in the room. It's wonderful when the kids feel like being reverent and seem to enjoy it. In shorter words than they used, these are the different bits of advice that everyone game Miriam about the Holy Ghost. Enoch said, "Use it or lose it." Auriana said, "Act on it." Isaac said, "Don't talk yourself out of it." Natalie said, "Trust your feelings." Bjorn said, "Recognize it and understand it." Becky said, "Remember it and be grateful for it."
After Family night the older kids started doing a group practice as usual, but Bjorn was making cookies for our treat, so I let the younger kids stay up. Pretty soon, the younger ones were joining the older ones in the music making and they were all having such a great time: Miriam and Ellie on fiddle and Enoch on bass. They played for an hour. It was so much fun!
