gratitude day 19, family

My parents are visiting for the next couple of days, so this draw came at the perfect time for our 25 Days of Gratitude:

Not only did my mom take them for two walks, she took them to the park for an hour and played board games with them--all things I hate doing with my kids.  (I know . . . that makes me a horrible mother, I just don't have the patience for it.  Walking with 3 boys is anything but relaxing, the park is boring, and they fight all during board games.)

We are totally grateful for our family!!  Immediate and extended, we love them all and are so happy to be able to spend some time with them this holiday season.  Family is what it's all about, right?  They are so important!  We are happy to be eternal families sealed together so that we can live with each other forever.  :)

I thought I should leave a comment letting you know I am really enjoying reading about your families gratitude projects. I think it's so wonderful! I am going to have to get with it next year and try something like this with my family. Such wonderful lessons and fun too!

that doesn't mean you are bad mother. just mean we got ornery boys.
