I am writing this in hopes that Todd's Amy reads this. I know she would laugh. Lately we have been teaching the same lessons in RS. I facebooked her a while ago asking about Lesson 44 or something like that becasue it was a tough lesson. I was not feeling the love on it. As I researched on the internet the other blogs felt the same way- but I kept trying for inspiration- none- Anyway, being that master teacher that I am, I thought heck, it will come when I am teaching- I will go with the spirit. So, my day comes and I get up and tell the ladies- Let's open our books to Lesson 44- Silence and then someone says, "Don't you mean Lesson 45 Sister Forsyth?" "Oh, yah- that's what I meant- " NOT!!!! I had prepared the wrong lesson! Amy and I were teaching the same lesson I just did not know it!!!!! Anyway, I faked it through the entire thing. WHEW! No one caught on- We prayed and just when I thought I had pulled it off Sister Dorsett asked if she could get one of those handouts she saw I brought- BUSTED- they so did not go with the lesson. The Lord teaches us humility when we need it- I think I really must have needed it.

So I am feeling super guilty because Robin has written on her blog about three times since my last- so here I am! Lillie has gotten a new pet- her name is Mia. She is a little poodle and let me tell you Finn is into her! We have not yet snipped Finn and he has never been around other dogs especially girl dogs. Needless to say we kept Finn on a leash and let Mia tease him. We laughed and laughed and laughed. Finn's latest trick is to mark his territory- he pees on everything. When I walk him around the property he sniffs the bushes and if he hasn't marked it yet he does. Crazy! The only down size of Finn right now is that he is into the pecans- only when he eats then he throws them up- Yummy! Maybe I will get some cracked for you this week Mom- before Finn eats them all.
