Music Matters

John and I both have family members who have worked hard on their musical talents. We have not. We now wished we had (yes Dad, you were right . . .). We hope maybe our girls will be more diligent and have plans to pick up where we left off someday after dissertations are complete and babies are bigger . . .

Austria practiced I Love to See the Temple diligently for the Primary Program (we had the SR nursery join the kids on one song). I like how she sings the first verse: " . . . a place of love and beauty, I'll prepare myself while I am young, this is my favorite duty."

Monday our Family Home Evening was about Emma Smith and her assignment to compile hymns into a book. The next day, Anya was singing and asked me: "Is that song in the boy book?" I was confused and asked her what she meant. She replied, "You know, the boy book of songs Emma made." We had a little discussion on hymn vs him :).
