Swimming

I let the girls have a friend day and we went to the Penguin Movie and then went swimming.  They had a ton of fun and it was like a birthday party for no reason!   

Adison was already to go because she had her swim suit on under her clothes.   When I said that we were going swimming it made her day!  I figured out that if I ever need her to take a nap that all's I need to do is take her to the movies.  The last two movies we have taken her to she has fallen asleep on my lap.  This time I fell asleep for a few minutes also….. Lizzy bumped me and told me to wake up.

after swimming I let them go to our house and play cards and a few other games.  It is crazy to have my kids big enough to want to have late nights and do things like this.
That was the other thing they talked about in Stake Conference was setting rules and curfews for your kids.  They said that there are so many things that are going on after 12 that it makes one believe that the Spirit goes to bed at midnight.  Everyone laughed but he also said that people who set times for their children to be home and rules have a better chance for their kids making better choices.  He also said how it is a big thing for people who are on a first date to get into trouble these days.  Immorality is such a huge issue and it gets worse and worse all the time that now it is happening between people who are not even in relationships.  I know that things are just getting worse and worse as time goes on, but I pray that my kids will continue to have good friends and make good choices.  It is so true that if you choose the right you are so much happier and life is better.
