Kate doing the Family Home Evening lesson

This video is one of the sweetest, cutest and funniest things we've seen as parents. We are lucky to have caught it on tape (I guess it wasn't that hard since it went on and on for almost 10 min).

So here's the story...

Not too long ago I (Sergio) taught a lesson on the similarities between the temple and our home during a Family Home Evening. Elli and Ethan paid attention (mostly) and answered questions as they usually do. Kate...not so much. She spent her time as usual, walking back and forth between the living room and kitchen -where she goes after the cereal boxes to get a treat- and that is just fine with us since she's so little. We figured that as long as she sees us doing Family Home Evening our mission is accomplished and she'll eventually get the hang of it. Little did we know she was already paying great attention to what was going on! At the end of my lesson she grabbed a marker and went straight up to the board and her part of the "lesson" was captured in the video.



Isn't she sweet? For me, the most amazing part of it all was realizing how much children look up to you as a parent and learn from/imitate your behavior. A testament that the most effective teaching is in fact done by example.

If seeing that video is not enough cuteness for a day, here are some additional pictures of Kate.

How about those cheeksKate with her favorite people in the whole wide world!

We love you Kate!!
Thanks for making our home such a happy place to be!
