Tonight's FHE

The first topic came from Kylee. She just received a letter from one of her favorite missionaries - Mike Middleton. He sent her a quick note and because he is so busy, he included a copy of a letter that he sent to his mother. She loved this! The letter for his mom was so full of details and experiences.

Kylee knows a few girls that are writing to several missionaries and their letters seem so shallow and full of fluff. (My words, not hers.) She even knows of one missionary is so distracted - his focus is on setting up dates for when he gets home (in two years). Kylee definitely prefers the mommy version. She loves to be able to have something to respond to and having the opportunity to share her own experiences (institute and the like). She would much rather be a support and not a distraction (WOW - this is my kid!)

Topic #2 - Taylor has an assignment in school - "Do something that takes you out of your comfort zone." We all offered her suggestions. She shot down most of them.

Sing a solo - NO

Just for the family? - NO

Find a SBO (Shaun Cassidy) and hug him - PAUSE... (maybe we have a winner.)

One of her own ideas - Talk to random (unknown) people.

I personally like the SBO idea. At least she will get a hug from a cute boy out of it and get school credit to boot.
