Yeah Right!

In the interest of not taking myself too seriously, or even worse, anyone else taking me too seriously, I will tell you what happened tonight.

We were reading as a family about Nephi getting the plates and how momma Sariah was ticked off because she thought her idiot husband had sent their boys off to be killed and now they were going to die in the wilderness too.  She was not a happy camper....haha they... were... camping... in the wilderness..haha  The story is more gentle by saying that she was "complaining"and she called her husband a "visionary man" not an idiot.   I can see the whole scene play out in my mind (don't worry her husband got her to simmer down and she repented and the boys made it home safely)

Anyway, I took this as an opportunity to tell my kids that I was never going to get mad ever again (because of my refiners fire commentary).  My children took it as an opportunity to laugh mightily and say things like "yeah right."  Jared went further by saying that I would need to go to such extremes of becoming a "monk, the kind that lives alone in a cave or something like that for you to accomplish that!"

So, the next time you see me gearing up to punch someone in the face or verbally slay them......I'm going to "try a little harder to do a little better" ~ Hinkley...and my children will be there laughing at me and my husband will probably be trying to get me to simmer down and repent ;0)
