I got an interesting phone call the other day. Our phone number is one digit different from our local Lowe's, so when I didn't recognize the caller ID I figured that I'd be directing someone to the Lowe's number. What I got was a conversation that went like this:
"This is D.C. I just got home 3 days ago from my mission to San Diego and I lived in the same apartment as San Diego Boy. I asked him if there was anyone he wanted me to call and give a message to. He said, 'Yeah, call my mom and tell her that every day I'm thankful for the things she taught me and that I love her......that'll make her cry."
Yes, it did.
A recent photo of SD Boy. He's living near a lake and says there are lots of "feral" geese there. You can take the boy out of hunting, but you can't take hunting out of the boy.
That's awesome!

Just think, next Sunday you get the real thing too. That will be exciting for you I'm sure. I just love your daily posts. Keep them coming.

How sweet! And yes - it makes me smile and get teary eyed too! What a great kiddo (both yours and his former apartment mate!)
