FHE: 2 down, 50 to go

Prequel to FHE included:
Both kids being sent to their room for talking back.
The dogs escaping the backyard and running to the park.
Tasha spilling her shredded Parmesan cheese all over the floor. (Prequel to that is that she didn't like what was for dinner)
Dogs returning and licking up said cheese.
Tasha having a fit back and forth between the kitchen, living room, and bedroom.

FHE

Post game show:
Let's just say I heard "I don't want to go to bed!" repeated over and over and over for almost half and hour. A half an hour after that I found myself sitting in the hallway reading so that Tasha wouldn't come out anymore. Tomorrow is going to be a long day. I guess I better go to the Temple in the morning.

La, la. I'm sure ONE of my kids will benefit from reading this when they are trying to bless their children's lives with FHE. I will just smile thoughtfully and try to sympathize, all the while knowing the torment they put me through.

There is a great article on FHE in the July Ensign. It was helpful to us. We have been having some problems with FHE lately too so I know how you feel.

I am impressed at your determination. We are really bad at doing structured FHE's. You are really inspiring me to make it more of a goal for us. Keep up the hard work, and I am sure Heavenly Father will bless you!
