"My Home Teachers are better than yours"
A woman in relief society stands up during 'good minute' to tell everyone how much she loves her home teachers. She says, "my home teachers never fail on visiting me every first day of every month. they are the best!".
Another woman stands up and says, "well my home teachers always visits me the day before yours comes".
Who's better now?
IT's now getting harder to sit in class and listen to a lesson while Kamanamau is trying to talk over the teacher. When I put him on my lap he'll squirm out of it, pound on anything in reach, and grunt & yell at the same time so that everyone stares my way. You're probably thinking "man, if that was me i would sa sa him". Yes I believe in discipline, but first I think hitting is a sign that you have lost control and second it doesn't sit well with me when you beat your children in front of people -I've had enough of that shame. We've never had time outs and I don't know what to think about groundings. Ahh! anyways, back to whatever I was saying - I didn't wana put him in nursery because he's coughing and has a runny nose. Sick? no, not really. Just coughing and the runny nose. Well, he still has 2 more months until he can legally be in nursery. LOL. you never know, i don't want the nursery teachers to ask me to show them his birth certificate and deny him to go to nursery because he's not old enough haha.
Today's topic in our combined class: PROvident LIVING.
Something new I learned was about emotional spending. Do you ever find yourself searching for something to get your loved one because his/her birthday is coming up, then you buy them the flat screen tv that you've always wanted?? Not that this has happened to me. I wish LOL. Now I have to think twice, no 3 times before buying anything.
This actually ties into a talk in the last general conference when a man wants to buy his lovely wife a very expensive fur coat. She says she doesn't need it and asks where will she wear it to. Then she says are you buying this for me or are you trying to prove something to other people?
Everyone in our apartment building has a huge flat screen tv. It would be nice to have one, but we don't need it. I always joke around and say that we should get a flat screen so we can be 'in sync' with everyone else, but I would rather put that money away for something else. If someone just happens to offer their flat screen . . then let it be :D hahaha
