It is Mother's Day, and first of all, we got a phone call from Karen, and they were back in San Diego, and just getting their car to come home. Then I opened my presents, a book and candy from Carla, and a dress from Kaye. The dress fits fine, I just have to sew up the neckline a little, before I wear it. Kaye said she has one like it, and she thinks maybe Karen has one, also. It's a great dress for travel, and still pretty. The candy from Carla is good, and I'm sure the book will be interesting to read, it's by the first counselor on the Relief Society General Board. And Chris gave me an orchid corsage, that I wore to the dinner here, and now it is on display on our dining table.
We did go to Church, and stayed for only the Sacrament Meeting. I'm not sure we could last through the other two meetings and still have the energy to drive back here afterward
I'm anxious to talk to Karen about their trip to Greece. I've never been there, and it is a great place for the history of life in those early times when it was the center of the civilized world. In college my major was French and my minor was History. In spite of my age, I'm still interested in both; although my understanding of things is of course getting weaker.
We just saw a Sherlock Holmes Mystery, that is about the extent of my involvement nowadays.
We got an Email from Kendra Gillian, and it's nice that she still remembers us. Their youngest child will start kindergarten in the fall. It's been about six years since they left here. They are finally going to be sealed in the Temple, and that's good.
