Hello everyone

Well, isn't life moving foward inexorably. We are all well here. Children are growing so fast everyday. Eryn is the busiest two year old we've had. She's all about being busy about as much as possible. "Where is Eryn" is a common, though unwelcome question. Last Sunday, we got so engaged getting everyone ready for church (it starts at 9:00), that we lost focus of where she'd gotten off to. I found her in the kitchen with the sugar out and a bag of cereal. The Cereal bag had a couple of cups worth of sugar inside with the cereal. There was also a healthy pile of sugar that she had spilled while pouring scattered all around the kitchen floor. She looked at me with a bit of chagrin, pointed, and said "Look." Incidentally, that's what she usually says when she's managed a bit of something or other, "Look", as if to ask if we can't see how original and wonderful her latest escapade is. This is not to say she doesn't know when she's in trouble, or thinks she might be. None of the other kids have jumped nearly as high with the simple mention of their name when they're starting into mischeif. Her other favorite word is, "Yep." Eryn are you getting into trouble? Response: "Yep", and off she goes to execute her plan.

Caleb was especially adorable during one bit of conference today. He came up to me, grabbed my face in his hands, looked me in the eye, and said, "Dad, you're my friend" and followed that up with a kiss. There's not much to top that for me. He even continued on to Jesse and did the same thing. He repeated that a couple of times through the day, it was great.

That's it for now. More later. We love you all and miss you lots.

Dave
