Can hardly believe that Emi is a senior this year!
Emi has experienced severe trials the last few years,
but in the face of all that, continues to be loving and kind.
She also has a talent for drawing, which she uses combined
with her quick, funny wit, to draw great cards and comics!
I have learned so much from my daughter, her talent and
her struggles; I love you, Emi! Keep on trying, my dear!

| Tom likes sugar-coated, cinnamon gummy bears, but they are hard to find! I found a recipe online and except for needing to be stirred a lot, they were pretty easy! |
 |
| Next time I will try different flavors! |

| Reeeeeeally wanted to get Kimo a chocolate frog, but knew it would never take the heat from being mailed to Honduras! |
 |
| We had a really good time here at Universal Studios, mainly due to the head-of-the-line passes we broke down and bought. Soooooo worth it! They made the difference between standing in line for an attraction for 45 minutes to standing in line 3 minutes! Why have we never done this before??? |

| Most folks know by now that Kimo is currently serving his two-year mission in Honduras. I miss him so very much and at the same time I'm glad he's out there doing his duty. I am absolutely amazed at what he is doing! He is learning to: speak Spanish, teach the gospel, be guided by the Holy Ghost, live with a missionary companion 24/7, and take care of himself and all that that entails! He has shown himself to be thoughtful and kind and loving. I've always loved our son, of course, but I am in awe of him to a larger degree than I ever have been before. I've never liked to say that "I'm proud" of our kids, that implies comparisons to other people. What I prefer to say is that I am deeply pleased with our son, and that I love him. Please pray for him and all the other missionaries, that they could be safe and successful in doing the Lord's work. |
