I’ll be following our children’s antics and I hope that occasionally they’ll contribute (if only to contradict.)
Adam is in law school. Currently, he’s in St. George clerking for a judge and living with his grandparents. Personally, I can’t think of a worse place to spend a summer, but fortunately, the courthouse is air-conditioned.
Bethany lives in Portland with her husband, Brandon, and adorable toddler, Chandler. Brandon attends chiropractic school and Bethany practices what she learned in elementary education on Chandler. Chandler does not read, nor does he do math, although he can hold up two fingers when he’s asked his age.
Nathan is a missionary in Argentina. Last week he wrote and said his companion had the swine flu. He spent the week tending his companion, going to the hospital and making videos with his phone. He didn’t write this week and I imagine him sweating, gasping for breath and crying out for his mom.
Jared is a senior at Tesoro High School. He gets letters every day from a host of schools begging him to forget about his family, ditch his girlfriend and join them. We miss him and he hasn’t even left, yet.
Natalie and Miranda will be freshmen at Tesoro. At Las Flores Middle School they sang in the choir. Currently, they’re taking a track sports camp. Everyday I pick them up and they’re sweaty, smelly and red. Singing didn’t prep them for hoofing around a track.
Grendal, our Schnauzer, loves to hoof tracks. She’s the most accommodating running partner I’ve ever had. She doesn’t complain when I run, or when I walk, she never tires. She just keeps going and going.
Kind of like us. Twenty-seven years and counting.
