The Bishop and his wife gave Nick a really nice journal set for turning 12. Nick, the belligerent, almost teen that he is, didn’t seem too understand why a journal is so important.

I remember Justin, Will, often one of the Williams, and I would go through the hymn book during Sacrament meeting adding “in the toilet” to every title. See what I mean by funny depending on who you ask? Anyway, we were reading the scriptures the other night, and Ashlee got stuck on “hitherto”.
