kudos to all

This is for all of you who deal with children day in and day out. I think that is all of you. After being at Samuel and Caren's for a week, I am pleased to be home with all the peace and quiet and full nights sleeps. I guess I just forget, from one time to the next, how much time and energy it takes to take care of children and Samuel only has two. Did I say only? I mean, that's at least twice as much work as one. (LaDale, I don't know how you handle 25 or more, I really don't.) After just one night of very little sleep, (the boys were missing their parents) I realized that this is the reason they usually give children to young people. Just to be clear, the boys were wonderful. It was fun and I enjoyed the time there. I am also looking forward to helping out in Spanish Fork in a couple of weeks but at the same time, I am glad that it is not constant.
