Some Lived, Some Died

We discussed our FHE flowers.  I’m not naming names, but I have one child that hates to read.  This particular child made no effort reading her scriptures this last week, and was honest in not watering her flower.

I told her that I was sad it died.  She said, “Mom, it’s just a plant!  I have been too busy to read.”  I then asked her what we were comparing the plant to and what happens to us spiritually when we neglect our prayers and scriptures.  It led into a really good conversation with her!

I hope my kids don’t die spiritually.  I hope that I can teach them all that I need to before they leave home.  Oh how I hope and pray for them daily!
