Yay for all of you! I'm proud and I've never even met any of you.<br /><br />My congratulations to everyone.<br /><br />And yes, boys do have it easier. A little too easy sometimes, I think.

Prior to the ceremony, I didn't truly appreciate the sacrices that these young men have made for us.<br /><br />I think the Morman luncheon was my favorite. I loved the ceremony and what it symbolized.<br /><br /><br />Regarding food; these next few weeks your boy will eat like he has been starved for a lifetime. My philosophy; eat up!"
