The spirit of Easter

As an LDS cartoonist, this week is kind of challenging for me deciding what to draw. It's Holy Week, leading up to Easter. It's also the week before General Conference. And it's a good thing that BYU isn't in the Final Four, or I'd have to consider that, too.  So many possibilities!

In the end, I chose to compromise (at least for today) with some cartoons from Sis. Kerry Jo's mission, trying to explain Easter eggs to her companion, Sis. Han.

Although there's no mention of General Conference in the cartoons, you CAN download the Mormon Cartoonist's General Conference Activity Packet from his website.

There. Did we cover everything? Wait — go Wisconsin!

Monday Sketchbook: Making the most from General Conference

I must have been feeling a bit cynical the day I drew this. I think that's why it stayed in the sketchbook.

If you want to get more out of General Conference, prepare yourself. Go with questions in mind, with an open heart, and actively listen to all the sessions. Yes, the sessions on Saturday too. You'll get a lot more out of it if you do.

It's all available online, including the General Women's Session. Just like women can listen to the Priesthood Session, men should listen to the Women's Session, too. Make yourself uncrushable!*

May it nourish and strengthen us

If you're going to have a monster under your bed, it should at least know how to say grace, right?

If you do proper planning

Time for a miracle!

I used to borrow my brother's clothes after he left for school, and hurry and put them back in his closet before he came home. I could never figure out how he knew I'd taken them, because I always put them back in the same spot.

And then I learned about deodorant!

It's what's inside that matters

In our mission, it was more about what was living in the walls. Whatever they were, they seemed to be holding World Cup matches almost every night!

What's on your list today?

Sometimes there's a conflict between parental agendas and those of the kids during spring break.
