I'm also glad to have been a part of some of those memories Josh. Do you remember that I went fishing with you guys at least once, and I remember morning scripture reading at the butt crack of dawn and eating your Dad's wierd canned fish foods. (I still like pickled herring.) Your dad is a great guy, and not only to his kids, but to everyone. And you are more like him than you know. (I think you may be a bit more tolerant of homosexuals though...) Also, sorry about all the bugging about lack of TV and Nintendo. You do have to admit it made you guys into boring guests when you went to someone's house that had a Nintendo. But I do realize what you are talking about. If I let Eva she would stare at PBS for 10 hours a day. We miss you guys and we want to hang out. We are going to come to Iowa for Thanksgiving and for Christmas, but Candace's brother will be with us at Christmas, so if we hung out then it would be with one extra person. Tell us your plans. If you are in Muscatine it would be way easier to hang out, but we are willing to go to Ames or wherever you live if need be. Tell us what you guys are planning. Ok, ditto to what Kate said.

You work so hard every day and still spend time with your children. When I come home from class I am exhausted and don't feel like doing anything. You must have learned a lot from your dad.
