How I live my faith

I once heard that it is our duty to leave this world a better place than when we found it. This is what I do and this is what I teach my children. At church I have the privlege of teaching 15 wonderful 5 year old children. I teach them about prayer, about Jesus Christ and about all the wonderful things he taught. I have spent many hours volunteering at my children's school as an academic chairperson, organizing spelling bees, math bees, science fairs and reflections contests. I also volunteered in my children's classes as an art docent / teacher. Currently I home-school my children, because I found that while they were at school, I didn't have the time with my children that I needed. Now I get to spend so much more time with them teaching them school. I get to teach them to love freedom, through studying the constitution, and many other fun subjects favorites of mine, such as math and science, history and art. When I run errands I bring my children and they are so good to try and help. When we are at the store they find things knocked down and pick them up and put them where they belong. We clean up trash we see in the parking lot, and try to put a few extra shopping carts away as we leave. They especially enjoy looking for someone who might need help and asking them if they can assist them. This is truly my joy, to see my children raised up unto righteousness. At home we have family prayer morning and night and study the scriptures together each morning. I love the Lord and hope to pass this legacy down through the generations
