2- After a hiatus of three years, I am joining my sisters, hopefully all my sisters-in-law, my mom, one aunt and some cousins and going to Women's Conference at BYU. When I think about it by chance during the day, I just grin. I can't help it.
The program came in the mail. I want to go to everything. Twice. |
4- Emma didn't sleep one bit Tuesday night and then she spent all day yesterday at Disneyland. She is ten thousand times stronger than I am. That would kill me. Dead. No more Thelma.
5- Speaking of the name Thelma, I always, always have to spell it for people. And it strikes me as a pretty phonetic word. I've started saying my name is Emma when I need to give it at a restaurant or something. It's easier because Thelma is such a stumbling block for people. Yesterday at the store, looking at my account, a store clerk asked me how I pronounce my first name. Take it slow...sound it out? I'm not sure how many alternative pronunciations there could be.
6- Yesterday I talked to Tabor while he was driving. He drove by my house twice in his travels and said he waved. I didn't see it, but I'll believe him. He was too pressed for time to stop. That kid is definitely in the top three of my favorite brothers. I love talking to him. He is funny and empathetic and wise. He always makes me feel better. He said, "I wish I were there to give you a hug."
7- You know what, Tabor? Me too.
8- I prepared some stuff for Young Women's and I felt like I was in an alternative universe where I do Pinterest-y type stuff.
9- I mean, look at me and my bad self.
10- But I didn't even get these ideas from Pinterest. They are Thelma (how do you pronounce that?) originals.
11- Isn't that one pretty Emma?
12- I miss her.

You forgot to say that you are going to Women's Conference with your niece! :)
Our caller ID struggles with pronouncing your name: "THEM-LA" is how she likes to put it.
