Last night we gathered as a family to write our first letters to Elder, as the twins call him. It is going to take some practice!! We started out ok with blank paper, crayons, colored pencils, note pads and pens. The twins were crying within 5 min because they were not happy with their art work. Lots of do overs and a half a ream of paper later everyone had something to add to the envelope. I think if I play some institutional approved music, the kind they play for inmates or at Randolf during craft time, softly it might help. I'll be sure to share what works and what does not.
We are looking forward to his "P" day. We are not sure if it is Tuesday or Wednesday but we plan on being ready to email back as soon as we get something. We think they are 3 hours ahead of us. The CTM president said something about going to the temple first. So we will let you know as soon as we do.
