Listening Ears

We have been doing more to involve Ethan in family home evenings.  I just always thought, "oh he is so young" so we didn't really include him.  In fact, a lot of our family nights pretty much consisted of watching Chuck and eating ice cream.  But the last few weeks we have done such fun things for family night. I have been using the nursery manual and a few weeks ago we did a lesson on temples, because Ethan loves temples.  He still has the temple that he colored up in his room and he is so proud of it. When I brought the nursery manual and the crayons downstairs this week Ethan got all excited and pointed over to it and said "Jesus!" I think he is catching on. This week we did a lesson on having listening ears.  We played a game where Eric and Ethan would run and then when I said stop, they had to stop.  We sang some songs and we made these listening ear headbands.  Ethan made sure that all of us wore them until it was time to go to sleep. I'm happy that he enjoys family night so much now!
