Finished!

Last night we finished reading the Book of Mormon together as a family. To be honest, I really can't tell you how long it took us to do it. I am thinking though that we started it around last fall. So, fall of 2011. Honestly, the last chapters of the Book of Mormon are not my favorite. They are down right gory. It makes me sick to think that people could do that to one another and the fathers could do that to other people's children. As I lay in bed last night thinking about that, I can't help but think of what is going on in the news at the moment...the Powell story. A father who killed his wife 2 years ago, and she still hasn't been found. This last Sunday he blew up his house with himself and 2 boys inside. There are other details, but, I am not going into those. MyLeigh demonstrated very well for us how Shiz must have looked with his head cut off, raising up on his sword. Nice. Tomorrow we are starting again and have set a goal to have it read before school starts again in the fall.
