When Valerie and I were single, we did so many Sunday things- like visiting 2 wards with three meetings, then the nursing home for music and games, munch-mingles, Firesides... our day was spent on spiritual gain all day. In fact, it was so much that often, I would wake up Monday so tired from my Sunday... Actually, with that realization, we started cutting back a bit, but regardless, it was easier.<br /><br />With a baby, even taking the sacrament is an interesting experience. Today 3 pieces of bread dropped to the floor as the tray passed between Valerie and me and across Asher. Yikes.<br /><br />Valerie was a bit calmer in church as a baby, but he makes us lots of friends, that is for sure.<br /><br />Also, when MAtt and I got married, I told him I would not like the TV on at all on Sundays, we did not even have cable for much of our single time and it was really nice... I gave up on that too, but I would like to get back to it. I prefer reading and music, but that is just me. I have realized people can do things differently and be uplifted. The key is to just realize what doesn't feel right and not do it ;-)Crystalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15260117428119041785noreply@blogger.com
