I know that by harnessing our worldly passions and placing our trust completely in Heavenly Father, we'd live richer, fuller lives. This would make a great FHE lesson for the kids! What is their favorite treat you could use?
I love that story, and the video clips they put with it are just priceless!
For a treat to pair up with the lesson, I think it would absolutely have to involve marshmallows. S'mores, maybe? :o)
Or, I have this recipe I'm dying to try where you roll a marshmallow in cinnamon sugar, wrap it in a crescent roll, roll the crescent roll in cinnamon sugar, and then bake it. Of course, that might not be tempting enough to illustrate the point since they've never tried it before.
Maybe a scoop of ice cream, and if they can wait 15 minutes to eat it, they can get caramel syrup and whipped cream and a cherry on top.
Anyway, thanks for the thought - and for the FHE idea. Always in need of those. :-D
This was perfect. Exactly what I needed to hear today. Thank you, Elizabeth.

Thank you, guys! This is really inspiring. It'll be fun to see what kinda personalities each of our kids have! :D
