For FHE, Don and I decided to play a game with the kids. It was pretty nice outside so we decided it would be fun to play baseball. We told the kids we were going to go outside and do something as a family and we'd have to work together.
We went out and used the t-ball stand. Don was the outfielder and the kids and I took turns hitting the ball and running the bases (flattened cereal boxes) before daddy could tag us out. Sometimes the kids got tagged, sometimes I had to hit them home, but everyone had fun. We then played some quick hide and go seek.
When it was time to go in and have our closing prayer and our treat Don asked the kids some questions. He asked Josh if he ever made it to home plate by himself? Josh said no, mommy and Holly had to help me. He asked Holly the same question. She gave basically the same reply. Don said that is like returning home to our Heavenly Father we have to work as a family to get there, and just like they need mommy to make it possible to get home, we needed Jesus to make it possible to return to our Heavenly Father.
I was so proud of Don he did that whole thing on his own, no prompting or deciding on it together, he just spiritually lead our family.
BEST FHE EVER!
