When I Grow Up ...

... I want to be like Mandi!* Those of you that have met her will understand why. She is genuinely a kind person. You can tell from her happy countenance that she is living the gospel. She has many talents (plays piano, speaks Spanish, knows sign language, cooks well, she's crafty, she's friendly and smart, has 2 green thumbs, she's a terrifc wife and mother, she and David are regular temple goers, etc.) and more importantly she shares them! So bummed when she moved 2 thousand miles from me a few years ago. I miss you my dear friend but I'm glad we still keep in touch. Thank you for setting such a good example for me and others around you. Hugs and kisses to the kids for me. Love you all!!!

Mandi and her darling family
*Of course, I'm speaking rhetorically. Mandi's much younger than me.

I want to be like Mandi, too! :-) She probably doesn't even remember me...But I remember eating dinner at her apartment on my mission. She was always very supportive to us missionaries, and had such a warm and loving spirit in her home. I remember her working hard at food storage and being a great Mom. Thanks, Mandi, for your example to us all!
