Promise.

Okay children of mine working on raising your children...Please copy this quote and print it out and put it in your homes somewhere...it is a promise.  It sure helped in raising you kids !!     mama loves you !!!

"I feel certain that if, in our homes, parents will read from the Book of Mormon prayerfully and regularly, both by themselves and with their children, the spirit of that great book will come to permeate our homes and all who dwell therein.  The spirit of reverence will increase; mutual respect and consideration  for each other will grow.  The spirit of contention will depart.  Parents will counsel their children in greater love and wisdom.  Children will be more submissive to counsel.  Righteousness will increase.  Faith, Hope, and Charity --the pure love of Christ-- will abound in our homes and lives, bringing in their wake peace, joy and happiness."
Pres. Ezra Benson, in Apr. Conf. 1986, quoting Marion G. Romney from Apr. Conf. 1960

Latest Project Photos

   This house came with a hanging light in the utility room off the kitchen. They called it a breakfast room..but the washer and dryer are behind those doors you see in the light photo..I put shelves on the right wall leading to the garage door and the shelf reliance rack on the left side....Ta Da.....utility room. I broke that hanging light glass globe this week putting stuff on top of the shelf reliance rack.  Years ago in Chino I bought this flush ceiling light fixture ..complete with circular florescent light tube...at the 99cent store.  We put it up instead...much more logical !!  [ The patched spot is where the hook was].... next Project...  I wanted something inside my" dining room defining rectangle "I put on the wall in my great room.  Great rooms are rather tricky to use.   Dadu vetoed the huge fork and spoon idea..so I took those back.  I had this 12"x36" canvas somebody gave me in the garage..I didn't want to paint a picture so I looked at all the fabric stores around.  I found this plastic at Yardage Town.  I just glued it onto the back of the canvas...it costs just over $2.00 { Look at older posts if you want a before picture of the hanging light in the utility room.}
