Learn with Joy

From NieNie today, which I read as I lay in bed listening to my husband make our kids’ breakfast as I willed myself to heave this beautiful, big baby belly out of bed! (When I woke up Joseph pulled my shirt up to see his sister and traced my belly while saying, “Circle!” He also said, “Baby monkey” while poking her. I agree, she’s a monkey. Then he started laughing and said, “Crih-crih ME baby monkey!” which translated means, “Christopher called ME a baby monkey!” and I asked if he meant that and he said yes and we all laughed.) Back to scripture…

Jacob 4:3 says:

Now in this thing we do rejoice; and we labor diligently to engraven these words upon plates, hoping that our beloved brethren and our children will receive them with thankful hearts, and look upon them that they may learn with joy and not with sorrow, neither with contempt, concerning their first parents.
