To help us strengthen our families, we are counseled to spend one night a week together having a family activity, discussion or lesson. We call it Family Home Evening. You don't have to be a Latter-day Saint to have Family Home Evening. You can spend a night a week strengthening your family no matter what religion you are. Underneath the response of the month are ideas for things you can do to spend quality time with your family.
Every politician wants to be the candidate for family values.
However, family values are incubated in families, not legislatures. Children learn to be good citizens by watching parents who are good citizens and participating with them. They learn to be honest, faithful, committed, hard-working, forgiving, generous, compassionate, thankful and every other characteristic by watching and emulating someone. Let's be that someone. Let's spend enough time with our families that they will know what our values are by watching us, rather than merely hearing us.
