Welcome to the once a month blogger! The purpose of this blog is really to share ideas/thoughts/projects and maybe even a story or two!

I became a stay at home mom after having my second child. As a new stay at home mom I wanted a way to document the things I'm working on as well as share with anyone who might care to listen. I have gotten so many great ideas from others that I want to pay it forward in any way I can.

As for the name, "The Once a Month Blogger," Well, I have to be honest, that is extremely ambitious for me! I've had a personal blog site for about 6-7 years and have probably written on it less than a dozen times. My posts aren't likely to be long. I like to try to keep things as brief as possible!

As a warning, if you're looking for comic relief or inspiring literary genius...you won't find it here. But

I promise I will do my best to post once a month or more, even if only to briefly update you on a current project. Hopefully you can find something you'll like!

Holy Ghost Sharing Time Lesson

I was recently called into the primary presidency.  I had my first sharing time lesson today.  I just thought I'd share what I did because it ended up being pretty easy, low maintenance and low prep.  I chose 6 stories, 3 of which were examples of the Holy Ghost guiding and 3 of which were examples of the Holy Ghost protecting us.  You can find the stories I used here.  I put 6 strips of paper, labeled "Story1-6, on the chalkboard.  I let them shoot a nerf gun at the strips of paper.  Whichever paper they hit (or were closest to) is the story I'd read.  After the story was read I asked them whether the Holy Ghost was guiding or protecting.  It worked pretty well.  The kids loved shooting the nerf gun.  It wasn't frilly or pretty by any means, but the kids had fun!
