You think they aren't listening but they are...

This Morning I was heading to drop Cole off at preschool and he said "Mom remember those 3,000 soliders you were telling me about? I liked that." I said Oh yeah. The 2,000 Strippling Warriors,  I liked talking about them too.
Three thousand or two thousand, doesn't really matter to me! He listened, and remembered!
Today is Monday and that was last Monday's quick Family Home Evening Lesson.
 I have not done great with FHE. I decided I needed to be better at it. I want my children to know the scripture stories, and I want to know them better myself. (I miss primary, where I had to learn them to teach it to them) Also, this reason might be prideful, I know. But sometimes Cole will say a gospel principal, and say he learned it at church, and well darn it, I think wait a minute, I taught you that! Prideful? Sure.  However, I want him to learn it here at home first. So when he is learning it at church it isn't new, it's more like a review!
Guess I better get the blue folder out with the pictures and choose the story for tonight's FHE!
Really, FHE lasts all of 5 minutes and that does include opening and closing prayer, and the song!
Works for us!
