You said some really sweet things about Alli and didn't even know I'd be reading. <br /><br />Since that party, I have tried to be careful about planning parties on Sundays. That was just hard for me back then because I had a job where I worked 6 days a week and couldn't have it any other day. Man, I don't miss those days. You did handle this situation beautifully and Alli felt so special.<br /><br />We love Sophia so much!! She is such a fantastic little lady (as are all your kids). And your blog just makes me smile. I actually am reading it right now because I am having a bad day and needed to smile.Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18175191678201632341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10829483.post-66715719701693265472008-02-26T22:52:00.000-05:002008-02-26T22:52:00.000-05:00what a great mom!

My oldest son got traded off his football team because he couldn't play Sunday games! <BR/><BR/>I'm so glad you shared your story!!Reneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04220411179750713336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10829483.post-12889376425574702642008-02-23T12:18:00.000-05:002008-02-23T12:18:00.000-05:00Okay, okay you added me first..geez!! lol!

As for the parties, it's even harder to explain when you live in Utah and even Mormons shop and have parties on Sunday. Oh, well. Eventually they get it if you stick to your guns. You handled it great.Shelliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12851446861098955538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10829483.post-69571561902952896452008-02-22T14:45:00.000-05:002008-02-22T14:45:00.000-05:00good job!!good job!!Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18402044154717628457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10829483.post-53693402108499617982008-02-21T21:39:00.000-05:002008-02-21T21:39:00.000-05:00Parties and activities on Sundays are tough for th...Parties and activities on Sundays are tough for the kids to understand, but as they do it, it gets easier. <BR/><BR/>My husband is very busy with his calling which takes him to various wards.

We also try really hard to keep the sabbath day holy. My kids have missed out on plenty of activities, but teaching them to respect the sabbath is more important.

No meetings, on fast Sunday at all. . .and I know the Church has also said it would rather you not do you Home Teaching/VT on Sunday. <BR/> I'm the one with meetings in our house, right now--Jarrett has a slacker YM stake calling. I personally don't get a baby sitter for any church activity--so if Jarrett is not around or his parents, then I don't go.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
