I received this book from Deseret Book a while back...It's called "I Believe in Jesus Too" by Mark S. Nielsen. It shows how children all over the world go to church, take the sacrament, get baptized, participate in family home evening, and ultimately believe in Jesus.
I'd like to send you my copy of this book...so if you'd like to win it, please tell me what you'll be doing with your children this summer...It can be vacation plans, family traditions, summer camps, chores, chilling out, or even a course of study. Just let me know in a comment on this post and you'll be entered to win.
I'll announce the winner (chosen randomly) tomorrow morning.
Please remember to leave your email address and/or blog address when you comment.
Have a great day!
We are going to the Texas beach for the first time this summer!
ReplyDeleteWe will be starting June out by visiting our daughter and her little family to celebrate our grandson's third birthday!
ReplyDeleteHopefully, getting my daughter her driver's license. Exciting and scary stuff!
ReplyDeleteWe are moving this summer so we will spend the summer unpacking, swimming, and getting to know our new town (and state!)
ReplyDeleteThey may not think it's fun, but this summer is our "Summer of Accountability". My kids will be learning all the things that they are responsible for and how to do them. No more excuses at our house! Wish me luck!
ReplyDeleteThis summer we'll be going to Yellowstone for the first time. Hope Old Faithful is still faithful.

The kids and I are driving with my family to California to pick my brother up from his mission. Other than that we will be finding some new, fun ways to stay inside out of the heat!
ReplyDeleteWe will be just enjoying oru summer by spending good family time together and my husband and I are hopefully starting up a new business. Should be busy and fun!!

ReplyDeleteTeaching my 9-year old to make pancakes. Reading lessons with the 6 and 4 yr olds. Daily chores and story time with Mom.
ReplyDeleteWe started our summer early :) We just got back from a week long trip to California- it was LOTS of fun! For the rest of the summer we have a missionary farewell, a 2 year old birthday party and the hope that this expecting mama survives the heat :)
ReplyDeleteWe will be continuing art and piano lessons. I need to find a tutor for or figure out how to be a reading specialist for one of my daughters, and I desperately need to implement and stick to a chore chart this summer.
ReplyDeleteWe're moving from Pennsylvania to Denver this summer (next week actually). Then we're spending the summer exploring all Denver has to offer!
ReplyDeleteRoad tripping and swimming. Maybe some chores. Maybe some multiplication practice.
ReplyDeleteAfter a long several months with our son in the hospital, we are looking forward to just all being back together under the same roof again!
ReplyDeleteMy children are almost all grown, but this summer my mom and I will have 6 of my nieces and nephews with us all summer long. They range in age from 4 to 13. We will begin the day with breakfast, clean-up and then devotional. After that, I will take the 4 oldest individually and help them review their math and spelling. In the meantime the others will read and practice piano. After lunch we will go outside to play and to work in the garden.
ReplyDeleteWe are going to the pool and going to the pool and going to the pool!
ReplyDeleteGetting in as much time at the beautiful California beach as we can
ReplyDelete:)
ReplyDeleteWe are getting ready for another military move. Celebrating some birthdays and holding down the fort while Daddy is away for more training.
ReplyDeleteNo big plans, we'll stay local and probably hit the zoo a couple times, take a riverboat cruise, try to go to the Olympic Swim Trials, swimming lessons, etc.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a sweet book! We are planning a "home day camp" program for part of our summer using themes. Our camp is called the "MTC" or Mom Training Camp. My two youngest boys, 8 & 10 year old, are the participants, and my 14 year-old daughter will be helping to put the program together as a young women project. We also try to do SQUIRT (Super Quiet Un-Interrupted Reading Time) to keep up with their reading. We'll be making short trips to visit family, and a camping trip or two. Plus lots of Cub Scout stuff! I want to keep the TV and computer time to a minimum. My oldest son will be working at a candy store this summer. So fun! He usually works outside, so this will be a big change.
ReplyDeleteP.S. Congrats to your new graduate!
P.P.S. Can you tell we like acronyms?
We'll be baptizing the first of our 3 adopted children this summer! Along with lots of other fun adventures....
ReplyDeleteHopefully our summer will be filled with camping, beach trips, Mt. Saint Helen's, Tae Kwan Do, gymnastics, swimming lessons, reading, downtown adventures, friends, learning, teaching, fun and building relationships and lasting memories. Fingers crossed that it will all come together...

ReplyDeleteWe hopefully will heal. Too much so far this year. We will go and visit family, do VBS most likely with a neighbor, random adventures, and seek for AC when we are North. I think you know where to find me if I win....

ReplyDeleteOur plans are to play in lots of water, eat popcicles, play at the beach a few times, and live it up being kids.

Thanks so much for your inspirational and uplifting entries, I love reading them!
