Group Nights

Yesterday as I was talking to the kids about church and what they learned in their different primary classes, they both said they learned about forgiveness. Kade said he learned a fun game that he wanted to share for family night so we decided to collaborate for our family night tonight instead of it just being one persons night. Tenley taught the lesson, Kade was in charge of the game, and I got to choose dinner and the movie. It was a lot of fun.
Tenley gave a great lesson on how forgiving can make us happy. For Kade's game, Brad came up with different situations we encounter from day to day and asked if we'd be angry at that person or if we could forgive. For example, "Kade, you just get home from school and Tenley takes your iPad away so you can't play it. Will you be angry at her, or can you forgive her?" If you were willing to forgive you got to move forward so many spaces. It worked out really well and Ryder definitely enjoyed playing along and copying everything we did.
