Parents and Self-Worth: Helping Children Grow and Develop

I like to stream BYUTV talks while I workout (simultaneous mental spiritual inspiration seems to double the effect of the workout's endorphin release).

While I usually only share links on my personal blog, this talk is worthy of a regular revisit, and I hope to find it again someday when I'm reading blog archives. I'd recommend it not only to parents, but for anyone looking to live a more deliberate life.

The Crete Aquarium

One of the activities we enjoyed on our vacation to Crete was a trip to the island's aquarium Babies love fishies!

We love to see the temple

We were able to go to the temple when I went for some work meetings in Frankfurt. It was wonderful to also go to a ward on Sunday and see members I knew from my mission. We thought of Oma and Opa as we took pictures in the same places we have seen pictures of them with their missionaries.

Pickle that!

Yes, you can find just about anything pickled. We found this pickled watermelon in the Russian section of our local gourmet supermarket (Edeka).

We think this is the best supermarket in Germany - and in our little village!

Helping

She believes that teaching children to help when they are young is important. I agree! When you are helping you are truly happy.
