Word of Wisdom

I have this little booklet that was given to me years ago at a relief society enrichment meeting. Each page is one weeks worth of scripture study and questions to ponder on a certain subject. Even though this little booklet was very cool, I did not actually pick it up and start doing it page by page till recently. Read the rest of this entry »

Handsome Boy

We do a science co-op. Actually my friend Audrey has an awesome husband who has volunteered to teach science to a group of homeschoolers ages 6-14. Anyway, the other day they were just starting class and there was a family that was a little late. Here is the conversation:

Bro. A-H: Where are the Hansen boys?
Milo (raising his hand): I’m a Handsome boy!!

Apparently that brought about a great smile and laugh. It’s good to know that Milo has no doubt in his mind how handsome he is! We love ya boy!

MIA

For those of you who may be wondering why I am Missing In Action it is because I am here in Fresno. I got an early morning call on Friday that my mom had fallen and broken her leg. Three days and a 2 hour surgery later mom seems to be recovering nicely. When I have more time and more sleep I will post more details.

By Scott

I was making tuna fish yesterday when Jaime comes up, grabs the can and starts scrutinizing it.

“What?” I ask.

“Is this tuna dolphin safe?” she asks?

“I dunno’. Why, are you not gonna eat it if it’s not dolphin safe?”

“No. I only eat dolphin safe tuna.” says my environmentally conscious 10 year old.

She studies the can a few moments longer, and says,

“OK, good, it’s dolphin safe” pointing out the label and walks away satisfied.

I didn’t realize that 10 year old girls cared about stuff like that.
