His Hands

A few years ago i was introduced to this song on the way home from General Conference. It was just the music, but that was enough to bring me to tears. Then the following year at a youth conference this video was played. I have never felt closer to the Spirit more from a video than I do every time I watch this. This video just emphasises everything Christ was sent to earth for. He has healing power, He wants us to be comforted, He shows us the ultimate example of service. Whenever I need a reminder of my purpose here on earth is, I watch this and I'm reminded what is so important about living a Christlike life. The atonement is real people, He paid the ultimate sacrifice for us, as individuals. I'm not sure I'll ever really understand that, but I know it's up to me to do my best to be worthy of that. It's always nice to take a little time out, to step back and evaluate.

Kids TV is terrible.

I've recently started nannying for a 2 1/2 year old, He's wonderful, good and very cute. But sometimes he gets grouchy and the best thing to do is put on a tv show and let him calm down.
So I'm starting to realise why tv is such an issue these days. I remember watching Tots TV and learning tons of stuff. For example, donkeys are cute.
But some of the stuff now is just crap.
Here is my list of kids tv that drives me crazy.
1. Go Diego Go. (Why do I need to know Spanish?)
2. Clifford The Big Red Dog
3. The Backyardigans
4. Team Umizoomi
5. Bubble Guppies

Feel free to add yours!

You might be a redneck if...

I purchased a Christmas present for myself this year, a You Might Be A Redneck If... Calendar, and so far it has brought me nothing but joy. It makes me laugh how many of these things i do, or i at least know someone who does.

You Might Be A Redneck If.. your mama saves aluminum foil.

I loved this one because my Grandma saves everything! You can half eat a sandwich, drop the rest on the floor and she would think it would be worth saving for another day. So she sees no point in wasting perfectly good foil!

Blogging doesn't have to be hard does it?

I feel like blogging is something i should be able to enjoy. I should enjoy being able to share my thoughts with others, sharing with them what I've been up to and what I think they might enjoy. But blogging is something i find unnecessarily difficult. It takes too much time, no one would read it anyway and they can all see this on Facebook have been some of my biggest deterrents  Until now that is, I'm going to take a step back from Facebook so for those of you who actually care what I'm up to, this might be the best way to find out.
