School Stuff

During the last month at school, we had quite a bit of testing. To give the kids a break from the stress, they were allowed to wear a hat for one day. I forgot mine at home, and my smart husband suggested I make one. Here it is:

Just when I was thinking school was all work and no play, we had a field trip! The entire 2nd grade went to the Capital Theatre to see a play.
These are some pictures of the general education class I spend 1/2 of my day with:

I really love my job! But some days are a bit trying. On one such day (I was hit by a student) I got a surprise call from the office saying I had something there. Phillip had brought me these pretty roses:

For Mother's Day, I had the 3 I work with for reading make flowers for their mothers. For the flowers, we took pictures of their faces and made them the center of the flowers. The kids had fun taking pictures.

And one last photo. For group school picture day, I got to take a picture with all of the para educators:

The Reason for it all

We...solemnly proclaim that marriage between a man and a woman is ordained of God and that the family is central to the Creator’s plan for the eternal destiny of His children.

All human beings—male and female—are created in the image of God. Each is a beloved spirit son or daughter of heavenly parents, and, as such, each has a divine nature and destiny. Gender is an essential characteristic of individual premortal, mortal, and eternal identity and purpose.

...

The first commandment that God gave to Adam and Eve pertained to their potential for parenthood as husband and wife. We declare that God’s commandment for His children to multiply and replenish the earth remains in force. We further declare that God has commanded that the sacred powers of procreation are to be employed only between man and woman, lawfully wedded as husband and wife.

...

Husband and wife have a solemn responsibility to love and care for each other and for their children. “Children are an heritage of the Lord” (Psalms 127:3). Parents have a sacred duty to rear their children in love and righteousness, to provide for their physical and spiritual needs, to teach them to love and serve one another, to observe the commandments of God and to be law-abiding citizens wherever they live. Husbands and wives—mothers and fathers—will be held accountable before God for the discharge of these obligations.

The family is ordained of God. Marriage between man and woman is essential to His eternal plan. Children are entitled to birth within the bonds of matrimony, and to be reared by a father and a mother who honor marital vows with complete fidelity. Happiness in family life is most likely to be achieved when founded upon the teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ. Successful marriages and families are established and maintained on principles of faith, prayer, repentance, forgiveness, respect, love, compassion, work, and wholesome recreational activities. By divine design, fathers are to preside over their families in love and righteousness and are responsible to provide the necessities of life and protection for their families. Mothers are primarily responsible for the nurture of their children. In these sacred responsibilities, fathers and mothers are obligated to help one another as equal partners.
