Hey Nick:

As per your mother . . .

I can remember thinking she was so cool when I was young. I remember her being around and telling me what to touch and NOT touch.lol. I was usually getting into trouble unless I was watched. i remember thinking she was so pretty and was always alittle bit amazed by the way her two front teeth crossed just a little. I thought it was cool. I remember hearing her speak spanish on the phone after her mission and I vaguely remember her coming home from her mission. I just remember being so excited to see her that I ran and jumped into her arms and she gave me a huge hug. She was always so nice to me. I remember seeing her at her wedding and thinking how pretty she was. One of my biggest memories was getting to go to her apartment when her and your dad were first married. I thought it was so cool I got to hang out with them, ALONE. Your dad made these eggs and they were nasty. I don't know why I didn't like them, they were probably great, but at the time, I thought they were nasty, but I was trying to be polite and eat them. However, your mom said, "Brenda, you don't have to eat those if you don't want to." And I was so happy.lol. She gave me a roll of Life Savers, actually, over the years, she gave me a lot of Life Savers. But on this occassion, it was especially exciting because I saw Sabby and Colleen and got to brag that I stayed over without them.lol.

I also remembered how much she loved her kids. Actually, she adored her kids and we adored you too, because you were small and we were older. She'd let us hold you guys when you were babies. She was always sweet, and often made little jokes. She put up with her brothers with grace. They were always teasing her. "Ask me if I care." Who could forget.

Those are the things that I remembered about you mother (:
