In the beginning I read everything. The daily text I really tried to read daily, but there were just too many other things I had to do. As time went on I stopped reading the daily text ( and the mags.) and only would if there was something said at the meetings about reading it. When my daughter had her best friend sleep over, her parents (her dad was a ms and then an elder) told me to make sure we did the daily text. I did because I didn't want them to think bad of me. Maybe I am not that smart, but sometimes the scripture that was discussed didn't fit with what they wrote about it.
