Baby Lunch

We did a baby lunch for Nyssa and Franchesco--is that how you spell itl?It was wonderful to spend time with the Bateman, Oliver and Campos ladies. But, we missed Hilary. Lunch was really, really good--especially when the waiter threw the bread at us. This is going to be such a big year--with 3 babies and a big move for the Jensens. Exciting and exhausting.

Done Deal

Shayne ordered our Dell-green--color not state of the environment-laptop yesterday. When the kids stated that I would never use the computer in my office , I explained that I would use it, I just don't want Dad mess'en with it. It is like when Pres. Monson in his talk explained how his wife left a note on the microwave which said don't let Dad use the microwave, or dryer, or stove, or........Dad is proficient at all of the above, he just leaves such a mess around them when he uses them---candy wrappers, hammers, tape, dirty dishes, crumbs.....
Today in Victim Empathy I did the Drunk Driving modular. I have some great video for this, and had lots of women in tears. Will they stop drinking--probably not---will they get a designated driver--one can hope so. Did you know that the liver circulates our entire blood supply every 4 minutes through out our bodies. Is that amazing or what?
Planted some pansies in my new pots out front on Saturday---and wiped down the green porch swing. So it is ready for a sweet, spring night of just swinging and thinking. Say, you all need to read Dandelion Wine--or re-read it.

Conference was really historical wasn't it? I am so grateful that I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. When they showed on the TV screen that this was the 178th conference, I remembered listening to it on the radio and they announced it as the 125th conference. I would have been about 10 years old.

I have a request for Mother and Father's Day for dad and I------a laptop computer----Dad and I can make up the rest of the finances for it. I need you computer geeks to start looking out for a great deal, and something that will work for us. Dad has even agreed that he needs to get more computer literate and would use a lap top. S0---there ya go.

I thought it was so great to hear Bro Eyring in his talk today, give hope to parents who are rearing children in such a difficult world. He counseled us to live the gospel and teach it to our children, and they will be blessed.
