Marriage – Page 14 – Letters from Home

My hobby and my hero

I was busy this weekend publishing our homeschool newsletter. What’s inside? 78 poems, one comic strip, one watercolor painting, a historical essay, a literature essay, three drawings, 25 photos, and more! Everything is written by homeschoolers ages 6-17. It’s so rewarding to compile this each month.

We left Paige with the kids on Saturday night for Stake Conference and also Sunday night for my fireside. After 12 years it’s nice to be able to attend church meetings at night with Richard. She read bedtime stories to the boys until Mark fell asleep. Thank you, Paige!

Perspective

I learned today that a friend our age, a father of 3, passed away after a battle with cancer. His name was David and he was a really good person. His goal was to baptize his son before he passed away, and he made it, which tells you the kind of man he was.

Here is a recent photo of Richard and me. I wish I had more photos of the two of us. Kiss your husbands an extra time today and remember not to take them for granted. 2008-12-31-christmas-wedding-trip-0244
