Fred’s funeral

Lorena and the kids are going to Fred Wright’s funeral in Portland this morning with Tony, Martha, and Josh.  He was a good and faithful man.  It will be good for all of them to go.  I wish I could be there, too.  Kelly’s Spring Piano Recital was yesterday.  She did a great job.  She was sad because she had not been there the whole year, so she did not get her normal awards.  That provided us all with an opportunity to think and discuss those things for which we can be grateful.  It really was sad that Kelly did not get those awards, but the price of those awards would have been not ever having the opportunity to meet Ethne, Brook, Blair, David, Daniel, and all our other friends in Texas.

Today, I got in touch with the leader of the local Cub Scout Pack.  I think it will be an excellent thing for Christian.  It looks like there is only one more meeting for this year, but I went to the web site and saw their very cool patches.  We are very much looking forward to participating in Cub Scouts as soon as we get the chance.  I also bought How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie from Amazon this morning.  I thought it might be a good idea to read through that with the kids.  It has its issues, but it also discusses some great concepts and people skills.  We will read it aloud so we can discuss it as we go.
