A MIRACLE! Scott walked into the schoolroom on Monday and said, "Mom, I can't put this book down!" I fell off my chair in pure joy! I haven't heard those words in a very long time! He is reading THE LIGHTENING THIEF. Maybe you should check it out?

Stuart is in Resistencia, Argentina serving the Lord as a missionary. He was just made a trainer for his new companion Elder Robles from Chile. He was stunned to be a trainer, as he has only had 2 other companions and no gringo gets to be a trainer this soon. His Pres. Castillo's advice was, "The Lord often calls us for what we can become not just what we are." It was comforting to Elder Stuart.

Candice is BUSY! In the chorus for the HS musical, schoolwork, job as hostess at Claim Jumper Restaurant, voice lessons, church, home duties, etc. She is so far staying with her head above water. She just competed in a NATS competition last weekend and won 3rd place and $45 in her division. Pretty sweet - she said, "I wasn't really doing my best, so think what I can do if I really do my best." What a girl! She sang a german song and a Handel song.
