Today at the church (I belong to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints) (see www.mormon.org), we had a really neat event: a harvest festival. There was "vegetable art" : D, M, and MD made a person out of a potato and yellow pear tomatoes as well as a dog out of toothpicks and pear tomatoes. Don displayed items depicting his music project, and I displayed our anniversary scrapbook, my temple journal and a book that I am going to cover as part of my business "Recovered Classics." I will write more about that another time. Anyway, the event displayed people's talents, and everything was so beautiful and amazing. I was so glad that MD and SD got to come with us and enjoy the day and the other children that were there. The food was fun: corn dogs, mini hamburgers, chili (why does that word look so weird?), corn on the cob (served in melted butter so we didn't have to butter it ourselves), popcorn, and the best surprise: COTTON CANDY!!! What a nice event that our activities committee organized, and it was such a fun time for all of the families.
Our baby chickens are getting their adorable little wing and tail feathers: sooo cute!! This week I have been very grateful for my friendships with other women: they each have such a part in my life. My Mom and my sisters are the BEST (Michelle, you are a sister). And my new Amy is such a blessing to me: she is really good at making me laugh, and she likes to fix things like I do. The other day, we fixed a part of her truck with purple duck tape.
So in thinking about talents, how would one display the talent of being a good friend, a good listener, having a compassionate heart? How can those things be reflected in all that I do and say and am? Those things are all parts of my becoming more fully a disciple of Christ.
Love to all, Katie
