Dearest Folk

In our family we are striving to build our talents. The one talent we've been working on extensively for the last week is that of having a clean home. Yesterday, W came home utterly exhausted. He looked so tired. We had already eaten dinner together and we weren't planning on him being home for a few more hours. The house was less than guest-worthy (a lot less) and he came in and helped R with his homework and then got the kids excited about picking up and helped me finish picking up the front room, our room, and the kids room. Sometimes I just need a big pick-me-up (like developing the clean-house talent) and he was there for me. Thank you, dearest! I love you sooooo much!



Secondly, my mother. Not only does she give me wonderful advice and inspiration, she is what I want to be like. She seems to be able to single handedly run an immaculate house, a great family, aiding my father with his business. Yet, she still is able to talk to me for a long time. Today I received in the mail a care package, just to let me know that she loves me. She sent me some ideas for primary, candy, a gift card, a fun CD, a DVD, paper and other immensely fun things. Thanks Mom! I love you profusely!
