Quiet Mornings

Our summer vacation officially began last week but I was so busy that I didn't notice. This week, though, is much different. Erin began her summer job so she was out of the house by 7:15. Andrew also began a summer job in which he'll be working about 3 hours a day for my uncle Dan at the Transit. He was so nervous about talking to Dan about the job that he was up yesterday morning about 3:30 and couldn't sleep. He was anxious about "getting the job." Little did he realize he already had "the job." At any rate, with both of them gone each morning and Sammi sleeping in late or going to work, the house is pretty quiet. Tom doesn't make much noise and sometimes he's gone to work with his dad.

Some happy news around here includes the fact that the neighbor's dog is finally gone. Kim and I no longer have to walk and feed the critter and clean up after him. I think taking care of someone else's pet for 16 months is above and beyond the call of duty. Baby Adam should be showing up at any time now. Now that's exciting! Youth Conference is this week so Pat and I will be attending which is always fun. We're also headed to St. Paul on Saturday for a special appointment as well as taking in a session at the temple. I guess that makes the end of the week a lot busier than my quiet beginning.

it is good that andrew was nervous to talk to dad about a job. there are to many kids that get handed jobs and never now what it is like to have to prepare for an interview. and he will realize one day that is the easiest interview he will ever have. oh those are the days.
