Our First Pro Baseball Game

We got to go to the Giants game on Friday! I entered all the kids’ names in a drawing at our public library a few weeks ago, and Heidi’s entry won!  I’d already forgotten about even entering when Colin called me as I drove back from dropping Degen off at school and said that the [...]

Mrs. Jensen Goes to Washington

I can strengthen my family now. “The family is central to the Creator’s plan for the eternal destiny of His children” (“Proclamation,” paragraph 1). …and I’m in charge of Sharing Time next week.  Next week’s lesson in the Outline goes like [...]
