I LOVE YOU! You looked over us as we ate our Sunday meal.  Spencer tried to pick your nose.  I'll let you handle that.  Do you think he's ready for a mission? :).

HOW IS YOUR LIFE YOU SCRUMPTIOUS DARLING MISSIONARY SON OF MINE?

I'm so proud of you for falling in love with the pottye extraordinaire, also known as the squirting toilette.  It's a fabulous concept, a glorious design .  Congratulations!  We saw Kyle Clark today! He looks super great! He's going to BYUI and studying architecture.  He seems very happy.  

I LOVED hearing about the Dong family grandparents "shufling around their shop with excitement." You are pure joy. 

I love the story of Chen Wei Yin and his best friend branch president. It reminds me of the story of President Kimball. His next door neighbor at one point found out he was an apostle.  He hadn't known but said, "He is the best neighbor I've ever had".  

Im excited to hear about hang Wei Yi.  I love anyone who makes noodles for my baby.  I love your thoughts about repentance.  I love you SO  MUCH!  

Fun happenings of the Bluffdale Bunch:

• Monday FHE wasn't the stuper greatest. Slept in my clothes.
• Tuesday I went visiting teaching and was privileged to share sucha beautiful thought about the atonement.  Here it is: Of Jesus Christ’s Atonement, Elder D. Todd Christofferson of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles said: “The Savior’s suffering in Gethsemane and His agony on the cross redeem us from sin by satisfying the demands that justice has upon us. He extends mercy and pardons those who repent. The Atonement of Jesus Christ also satisfies the debt justice owes to us by healing and compensating us for any suffering we innocently endure. ‘For behold, he suffereth the pains of all men, yea, the pains of every living creature, both men, women, and children, who belong to the family of Adam’ (2 Nephi 9:21; see also Alma 7:11–12).”1Christ has “graven [us] upon the palms of [His] hands” (Isaiah 49:16). Linda K. Burton, Relief Society General President, says, “That supreme act of love ought to send each of us to our knees in humble prayer to thank our Heavenly Father for loving us enough that He sent His Only Begotten and perfect Son to suffer for our sins, our heartaches, and all that seems unfair in our own individual lives.”2  Isn't that absolutely beautifully put?  We think so much about the sins and pain we cause others being compensated for, but to hear the law of compensation so beautifully articulated! Oh, the love!
• Still doing carpet angels. We're trying to figure out how to thank the Maxwells.  Loving our house that feels brand new. 
• First practice with Coy as Lumeire, Seth as Chip and your ever loving Mom as Mrs. Potts. It occured to me that there is no substitute for time. To stay close to people spending time together is best. 
• Wednesday we met the whole neighborhood at City Hall to fight a Maverick going in next to Teri Summers house on the Bangerter side.  I think we've got a good chance.  
• Wednesday I also went to NPS with Grandma Jan, Chaelea's two kids, Grandma Jan and Nic. We were  a sight. Blind Jon pushing a cart with a baby in it while I pulled it from the front. I LOVE MY LIFE. We are a fun bunch.  
• Thursday we went to ELTON FREAKIN JOHN CONCERT! Qualtrix brought him in for their summit, and Angie and Evan took us. It was phenomenal.  He is such a polished performer just top of the tops. 
• Friday Seth sponsored his own science fair.  John Turner was the judge and Annie was his assistant.  It was darling.  
• Yesterday we flew kites at the flight park and played soccer ! It was warm! Heavenly!  
• Joseph helped Annie with her math.  
• We're getting Spen's clothes all gussed up to go to his Eagle Board of Review in a few minutes. WE may or not be sewing on merit badges right now. 
• Spen took Seth with him to a girl's birthday party just to be brotherly.  
• Someone turned on Bruno Mar's Treasure and Spen got on the piano and Joseph got on his drum and Seth put on his drum and things got crazy fast! 
• We broke out the polka-dotted snuggies and Seth's is up to his bum cheeks. 
• Most of nobody does their chores some of mostly sometimes. It's a crazy zoo.  
• Can you get Spen out of our bed please?  He thinks he has to sleep right in the middle.
• Isn't Joseph's news AWESOME!?
• WE laugh here and it's fun. We pray here too, and tease cry and fail, but we laugh and sometimes it's alot.  Like the other day when we had oatmeal for breakfast.  We laughed for thirty minutes but not about the oatmeal. 
• Spencer cleans his room sometimes. 
• Annie is getting SO GOOD on Grandma cello! It is so stinkin fun! 
• We're reading Peter and the Shadow Theives and the Book of Mormon. Perhaps you've heard of it?
• Spencer's pun during dinner.  Oxymoron. Almost. Think about it.
