  1. It does sound like you are asking for confirmation of what you are already thinking and no one can give you that except you and the Lord. Marriage is tough, raising happy, healthy children is tough and setting an example for them of how to deal with life is a valuable skill for anyone to learn. My suggestion would be pray about your marriage, but in the meantime, teach your son that dad is an individual and as such, has his own lessons to learn. Teach him to love, be tolerant, respectful and supportive while still taking care of himself and his own needs. Model for you son AND your husband healthy eating and don't keep junk food in the house. Good luck - I hope that you find the answers you need.
  2. I think the best thing I've heard was in relation to tithing - it's all in how we look at it. Instead of looking at it as I have to give up 10%, try looking at it as I get to keep 90%! The money didn't belong to us in the first place - it isn't an absolute that we get any set amount of money so look at the 90% as a gift instead of looking at the 10% as a burden. It is a spiritual principle that never fails.
  3. I've been out of the church for a long time and have recently started attending again. I've been thinking quite a bit about garments, but I don't know if there are things I have to do before I wear them again? Anyone have any insight on this? Thank you!
  4. Nice to meet you Tanzaneka. I have 4 grown children and 5 grandchildren (but my husband and I are raising 4 of them).
  5. and I never thought I would find myself stepping foot into an LDS church again, but I've been there 3 times in the last week! It feels so good to be there again, but so much has happened during my inactivity that I have quite a ways to go to regain my testimony (if I do!) I have doubts but at the same time, it feels good. I am truly looking for answers this time and am praying and asking HF to help me. I hope you don't mind being a part of my re-investigating and learning!
