Thank you Dad, for always knowing the answer to everything, whether it's "do I put the corn on the cob in the pot before or after the water's boiling" or "what's the word for "to twinkle" in Spanish in the past tense?" And you give the best advice. :D And Mom, thanks for all the care packages and cards over the years. I love that even though you told me to eat healthy and exercise, there was always a cake or brownie mix hidden the box of necessities that you had mailed to me. I am also grateful that your surprise gift-giving and example of service has rubbed off on me, because I can't think of anything more fun than making other people happy.
Nicoel: Thank you for becoming one of my best friends. Ever since we both moved out (and got cell phones) I can't think of a week where I didn't call you just to chat. And thanks for giving me a niece and nephew to spoil, eh? ;)
Dear Elder Judd: I'm sorry that I haven't sent a letter out to you every week that you've been away. But I'm so happy that you've chosen to share the gospel of Jesus Christ with His children in Argentina. I know you're doing a lot of good down there, and you're setting a wonderful example for not only your two younger brothers, but your older sister who misses you and can't wait to give you a HUGE hug when you get back in March!
Daniel: You're amazing. Not only are you crazy tall (which means you can reach things on shelves that I can't--which I appreciate!) you're very kind. Thanks for always taking a minute to chat with me or text me back when I'm feeling sad or icky. I'm glad Mom and Dad still have you around for a few more months (at least).
Edgar: Thank you for being you! I love when we get to visit, and that you're so willing to road trip with Mom and Dad so often so I can actually see you grow up into a young man (and I'm sorry I picked a picture from 3 1/2 years ago, but you'll always be my baby brother so I had to). You make me happy!
