Having family home evenings is a challenge for me and my dear husband. Sometimes it looks like an extended daily scripture study. I wonder oftentimes if there is anything we can do to make it more fun for the three of us?
Last night, I prepared the food early, we ate and then had stroll on the neighboring stores on our area. When we arrived home, we had our family home evening.
Dear daddy was assigned to give the lesson, and he talked about the prayer of the brother of Jared and how important it is to pray, before we ended the family home evening we tried putting this nearly three-month old Heavenne to her bed but as soon as her back hits the top of her bed she woke up and cried.
We're having a hard time figuring out what's wrong with her. She always sticks out her tongue and puts her fingers inside her mouth. Last Sunday night, she wouldn't sleep until 6:00 am monday. She always wakes up everytime we lay her down on her bed. And its only my husband who can put her to sleep on his arms, and she wouldn't if I'm the one holding her. I guess he had corrupted her mind to be a daddy's girl at an early age.
Anyway, we decided to put her on our bed. You wouldn't believe it, she was smiling and laughing as we put her down. Is that all what she wants, to sleep with us? We spent the next 30 mins watching her smile and play with us. This little girl has her own way of getting what she wants, so we co-sleep last night and she woke up at 7:00am this morning and after feeding her she went back to sleep till 12:00 noon, fed her again and she's still sleeping at this time (3:30pm). But I'm grateful for the time we had together last night as a family. We're specially grateful that last night we had the first family fun game of playing with Heavenne.lol. I'm looking forward for the family home evening where she can give the prayer or lesson, but that will be a long time from now.
We hope you friends also had a wonderful family home evening last night!
