Till Debt Do Us Part



I thought that the Till debt do us part chapter 2 was my favorite this week because it talked about the placing of children and how it effects others. I thought that was really interesting because it seems so correct. When I was reading about the middle child all I could think was this sounds exactly like me. This is something that I  thought I was feeling alone and had o idea that it was because I was a middle child.

 I was also thinking about the in-laws and when I was younger I would pray that my in-laws would love me and that I would finally be part of a family that loves me. This was something that I would tell myself when my family left and cast me out of their home for being true to the Gospel. I would say that one day I will have a family that will love me and I could not have been more blessed with a wonder family of in-laws then I am now. They are nice and kind, they are not pushy or invading and they let us make our own decisions without making us feel like major failures.

Counseling with our Counselors

This week we were told to told a family meeting and report back. This is something that my family and I already do, however we dont start with a prayer and I feel like that makes all the difference. The prayer brought us closer togeher and helped keep the Spiro in the room as we discussed things that were hard for us to talk about. We definitely grew from discussing things the way the Lord's prophet and apostles do. I know that the Lord blesses us and that He loves us and has laid out the best way to have disucussions without content.
