Monday Madness!

Whew, what a day! I really get a lot of energy out of Sundays. I really enjoy serving in my calling at church, and being among the other members. Though once I make it through the Sunday funnies (note: the Sunday Funnies have nothing to do with comics or newspapers!), I begin to dread the coming Monday. Christina calls it the Sunday night blues. Today was no exception. I wish we could have Sunday more that once a week, maybe even every other day!

Dustin's Day!

I heard a clip on the radio a few weeks ago a tip for being a better parent. This tip suggested celebrating or doing something special for your child on the aniversary of their birthday each month. Well, today is the anniversary of Dustin's birth. I am very proud of Dustin for many things, and I am pleased he could be part of our family. Here are a couple things that I am proud of Dustin for:

• Preparing and giving a talk in Primary, even though he didn't really want to. He didn't even complain. I was home with Carol, so I missed it, but we are going to have him give it to the family later.


• Dustin has really put a lot of effort into learning math. He has come a long way in a short time. I think that secretly he really likes it now!


• Dustin has recently discovered that he likes to take things apart especially if they are electronic or mechanical. - What else can I say, I'm thrilled. He has already asked if he can take apart my ipod or my laptop, or the TV. He is already up on me, because at least he asks, I don't think I ever did. (by the way, the answer was no!)
  
• I am really proud of Dustin for his newly found ability to memorize. He discovered it while trying to learn the Scout Oath and the Scout Law. He know has memorized quite a few scriptures and Articles of Faith.

Well, thats it for today! Happy Monday!
