The cannibal queen with the big nose ring

Dear family,
Mark, I loved your email tonight.  Thanks for your good insights and for teaching others about the Book of Mormon. Sorry I missed talking with you.
Much love to everyone,
Dad

Dad and I went to lunch today and had a nice visit together.  We talked about my new calling and the experience receiving and accepting that calling.  Also talked about some ideas to make my service effective and to wisely use time.  I am very hopeful that this will be a good experience for our ward, my family, and me personally.

After work Julie, Nathaniel and I went to the high school with Abbie for the induction ceremony to the National Honor Society.  Nathaniel was well behaved, but noisy.  It was cute when it wasn't time to be quiet, and he was a little distracting when everyone else was quiet.  Fortunately there was a lot of clapping, so he could be himself.  Then we got home and did FHE.

Thankful: I'm thankful that the High Council is approving the names I submitted to serve as my counselors.  It has been kind of funny watching emails from my fellow High Councilors approving these names, and even funnier adding my own email "approving" them too.

Ministering: Dad and I ate our lunch at the outside dining area at Guru's today.  As we were finishing our lunch, two young ladies came out and sat at another table but were struggling with the umbrella because it was broken.  We offered them our table with its already-set-up umbrella, and they gratefully accepted, saying that was "very sweet."  I didn't mean it to be "sweet," just kind.  Good enough.

More later…
