I have a brilliant friend...

I enjoy Sacrament Meeting. I really do. It's just that, well, sometimes the time seems to go by rather s l o w l y.

I suppose this is what happens when you spend the entire time using every ounce of your faculties to prevent a (exceptionally loud) toddler from bellowing, screaming, demanding, running, climbing, crying, hitting, throwing, hanging upside down, grabbing and everything else that is natural but not exactly welcome in a quiet meeting.

I know the problem is that we don't have anything that is very good at keeping his attention in an appropriate way. I do know this, I do. So why haven't I done anything lately to remedy this problem? That's a good question.

But then I caught wind of a fabulous idea from one of my blogging/college roomate friends. You see, she's so with-it that she is already planning an amazing quiet book even though her daughter is only five months old.

And it's taken me almost two years.

Now that I've read her plans, I'm done making excuses. I'm going to get this thing done. Like, today. My spiritual sanity is counting on it.
