Super Busy Sunday

This morning before church was like World War III.  Autumn wanted me to do her hair, so I did and then she decided she didn’t like it.  So, I told her to take it out while I went and got ready b/c we needed to leave for church.  She went into full meltdown mode w/ jumping and screaming.  I escorted her out of my room & shut the door so she could calm down & I could take deep breaths before dealing w/ the situation.  After that the day got so much better.

Church was good and I taught in Young Women’s about “The Purpose of Life.”  Most of my lesson came from THIS talk by John Hilton III & Anthony Sweat.  The girls did a great job & participated and had some great insights.

We had a Laurel’s class presidency meeting after church and since we have a new presidency, it took TWO HOURS!  Autumn was a complete angel the whole time and totally redeemed herself from WWIII this morning.

We went over to Mom & Dad’s house for  dinner and then Autumn & I went visiting teaching at 4:30.  I took Autumn w/ me so she could play w/ Abbey.  Then we went & visited Zulema & Ashley at 6:00.  It was a super busy and non-stop Sunday.

I have found a great use for all the massive amounts of washi tape I’ve amassed.  I am trying to be better about writing actual letters to people.  I know that I love to get “happy mail” instead of just bills and junk mail.  Plus, it’s a good way to let people know that the little things they do are being noticed and appreciated.  I’ve only been doing it for about a month and it’s already made a big difference in my life.  It’s a great Sunday night activity and I feel so happy putting those cards in the mail each Monday morning.
