10 February 2019

We are really, really loving two-hour church on Sundays.  We had some reservations about it, but the shorter worship time means that we have much more energy for the rest of the day, and it feels like the Sabbath is longer and more restful.  We've been doing the family study on Sunday afternoons right after lunch, and so we're spending an hour and a half in the scriptures together on Sundays and it's so wonderful.  It was a bit rough at first, getting used to it, but as we have learned how to work together to learn it's gotten more and more enjoyable.  We call 'tangerine' on each other to help stay on topic, but we laugh and joke and learn together.  I'm so grateful for this time and so grateful to Mr. Brown for leading us in it.

Then after we finish study time, we still have HOURS before dinner.  It's been so lovely to feel like we have time to do things together and enjoy each other without being so tired.  The Sabbath feels restful and spiritual in a way that it hasn't in a long time.  It is such a blessing to our family.
