| Happy Mothers' Day! It's a good day to be thankful for these for beautiful children! |
 |
| And it's especially easy to feel thankful when they are being sweet to each other. |

| Becky usually puts a small treat in the kids' lunches (unless they don't clean out their lunch boxes.) Abe asked Becky not to put any treats in his lunch for 2 weeks, save the candy and then give it to him all on the same day. His plan was to share with his friends, but he ended up eating most of it himself. |

| Our stake challenged all the youth to read the Book of Mormon in 67 days. Meeting the goal meant reading 8 pages a day. The stake gave each youth a pocket size copy of the Book of Mormon to make it easy for the kids to carry their books with them. They also asked them to underline Christ's names as they read. Sofi started with a lot of enthusiasm, but lost steam as she moved into Alma and as the school play took up much of her time. However, she persevered and finished the Book of Mormon on Tuesday, the day before the challenge ended. |

| Three cheers for Helen who learned to ride a bike this week. Helen was pretty sure she DID NOT want to learn to ride a bike. After a lot of practice and a little bribe (bacon stuffed hamburgers for dinner if she could ride her bike around the block by herself), Helen is now cruising around the neighborhood with ease. She discovered she LOVES riding a bike. |

| On Saturday we went for our first ever family bike ride. It was super fun. Sofi looked very French on her 1 speed cruiser with a scarf in her hair. |

Good job, Helen! It takes a lot of courage to do something you have been so scared of. I love that Abe wanted to save all his chocolate and ate most of it at once.
