6-1-10 "June is my Favorite Cleaver"

I thought of that subject line yesterday when I knew it was the last day of May but I wouldn't get to e-mail you until the first day of June. She really is my favorite. She always has on her trendy, chic 50s housewife dresses, but that doesn't stop her from untangling Beaver's messes and keeping the house perfectly tidy and otherwise saving the civilized world. Actually, my favorite character on Leave It to Beaver is Eddie Haskell. He's such a conniving, hypocritical little brown-noser, but he is so obvious about it that everyone kind of knows anyway. If he stopped doing it, that would be the truly conniving and hypocritical thing. He's a lot like Derek from Life with Derek actually, come to think of it.

Hmmm, this week. We got to go to a luncheon for volunteers at the food pantry where we volunteer every Tuesday. That was neat because it was at an Episcopal church, and a guest pastor got up and told all about how his mother had promised the Lord that he would become a preacher. Mostly, it was just nice to be there with friends I have made in this area. One of our investigators told us last Tuesday that she "doesn't feel comfortable praying about Joseph Smith." That surprised me, because when we originally told her the story, she said she thought it was possible.

I'm sorry to hear about Tucker Nielson. That is tragic. I wish I knew something I could do for them. Congratulations to Ronnie. She will be getting married on the day I went into the MTC last year. What an anniversary. I'm glad Ashley Crockett is home safe. I'm sure she was an amazing missionary. Also happy to hear that Michael Davis is back. I wonder if it's as hard to stop speaking Korean as it is to stop speaking Spanish.

Did you go to the grave party? I thought about you all yesterday, thinking what a fun tradition that is in our family. Sorry this is so disjointed today. My mind is kind of scatter-brained and on overload.

Love you all,

Sister Whitney Mikell Sorensen
