My kids all get excited for General Conference. Maybe that is because I always cook big breakfasts, buy tons of candy for Conference Bingo and we all get to relax and be together. I am a big fan of the DVR. One of it's best uses is to pause Conference to ask questions, or talk about something the speaker just said. I was impressed with how well my kids listened, and how well they could tell me what the speaker was talking about. In fact, today during Family Home Evening, Doug asked each of the kids to tell him something they had done today to show love or service to someone. Faith immediately said, "Hey dad, this is just like the Conference talk." She then told us just about the entire Conference talk. It was neat to see my kids putting away the bingo cards to take notes a good chunk of the time. Brayden's notes were pictures of family, temples, Jesus, the Prophet and the Book of Mormon. Gavin's notes were one word or thought at a time. Family, Love, Jesus Christ, Temples, Service, The Holy Spirit. Faith's were stories she heard and thoughts she had during Conference. It was wonderful to listen to the Conference talks as a family and be uplifted together.
