Here at the Jeppson’s house, we are getting used to this new routine just like you are! I admit we may have a little more screen time these days, but we are also having more learning moments such as baking with the kids, creating art, deep cleaning, improving the house with painting, playing outside more, and skyping with family. However, we are also trying to invite the spirit daily by the small things that make a big difference like hanging scripture verses up around the house to memorize, having daily family prayer, holding FHE, and following our manual of Come Follow Me together.
I was able to get some small prompt journals at Deseret Book that we have given each of the kids to help with their own scripture study of The Book of Mormon. The truth is I know I have room for improvement in my spiritual habits, and I recognize that now is a great opportunity for me to improve in these areas while helping my children do the same. I love listening to videos online from our prophet and apostles. There are so many amazing resources on the Church’s website! It is beautiful to see the impact those videos have on members and nonmembers alike.
I also am cherishing the friendships we have as a neighborhood and ward family that brings comfort and support while we watch out for each other. I love being a part of our ward and neighborhood.
The Jeppson’s love ya!
