Dec. 2015 Visiting Teaching Handout

Church, Printables, VT Handouts, , , , , , , , ,

Today I have the Dec. 2015 Visiting Teaching Handout for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

I hope that everyone had a great Thanksgiving!  We had all our family this year and we had a great day.  We ate, cleaned up the mess, and then I had all the kids bring up all the boxes with the Christmas decorations…then we went to the movie to see “The Good Dinosaur”, I thought that it was a darling movie and the kids seemed to love it.  They are still talking about it days later!  We then ate some more and tied 8 fleece blankets!! So it was a good day!   I got all of my Christmas put out, the next day, with the help of my 10 year old granddaughter!  She is getting great at decorating and I love having her help.  So now it is time to move into the next holiday and time for the Dec. 2015 Visiting Teaching Handout.

 I love the message for this month…it is perfect for December…“Divine Attributes of Jesus Christ:  Compassionate and Kind”Dec-2015-VT Continue reading →

Be The Good

Printables, Quotes, , , , , , ,

I decided that my thought for this week should be: “Be The Good”, in lieu of what is going on in the world this week.  It is really easy to get discouraged and wonder what is ever going to become of some of the world turmoil, but we need to remember that we can all “Be The Good” just with the attitude that we have!Be The Good

 This would be a great thought to print and/or frame.  To print as a jpeg, right click over the image and go to “save image as” then save in a folder.  You can print your own, or send it out to your favorite photo processing center.  This printable is formatted to an 8 x 10 size.  For those of you that would like the PDF format, just click on the link below:

Be the good

I would like to challenge each one of you that read this post, to have a positive attitude today, to go out of your way to say hi to someone… and to give your smile to every person you meet today!  This small act can truly change someone’s day.  If you want to carry it a step further, do a kind act of service today.  This could be for someone you know, in your family or friends, or it could be for a complete stranger.  It will make you feel good and I know that the person you serve will be happier too!

Just imagine what the world would be like if every single person did this!  :)  I know that  there are still going to be problems in the world and trials in each of our own lives, but if we can just stop for a minute or two and think of those around us it will make our own little corner of the world a better place!

Thanks for Visiting today!  Hope your day is a great one!

You Know Your Life Has Changed When…

Printables, Quotes, , , , ,

I have not done a thought in awhile, so I decided that it is time to start again.  The one that I picked for today is -You Know Your Life Has Changed When…going-to-the-grocery-store-alone-000-Page-1

Isn’t this the truth!!! :)

This printable is formatted to an 8 x 10 size,  If you want to print it as a picture, jpeg, right click over the image and go to “save image as”  then save in a folder.  If you would like the PDF download, simple click on this link:  going to the groceery store alone

 I remember those days so well!  One thing that I used to do when my kids were about ages 6-10 or so, is give them each a dollar.  They were not to buy something for themselves…but they had to pick out something for one of their siblings.  They had to think about it and try to figure out what they would like.  I also tried to teach them to get the most for their buck that they could.  I had almost forgot about this little trick until my daughter reminded me of it a while back.  But this was also back in the day when they could get several things for a dollar!  It was good for them to think about each other and what the other person might like.  We rotated the siblings around so they had a different person each time that we did this little  experiment!   It is amazing the ingenuity of mothers when put in stressful situation!  The kids thought that it was great fun and mom (me) was able to get through the shopping trip without a tremendous amount of trouble.  We had plenty of stressful, whiny, shopping trips too, but this is one idea that actually did work when I had to take all the kids with me!  :)
