The card says:

If loving you is wrong, I don't want to be right -
But if loving you is right, I don't want to be wrong either.
(I'm so confused...... It must be love.)

Dear Jennifer,

I do realize that you have not heard from me for quite awhile. They just recently had a transfer this month and although I was not transferred it really made me think. This is my last month of my mission and it is pretty frightening. I don't really have a clue as to what it is I'm going to do. My parents say that they will be in Salt Lake and are trying to get me released out there. My mother said something about having a General Authority release me but that sounds kind of scary. I kind of feel like they would give me the third degree but I know that isn't true. Well, it sounds that you are somewhat nervous in meeting me. Have you ever seen the old church movie, "Blind Date" or "Blind Love", or something like that. Anyway it's a show I know you would think was good. Don't feel a bit uncomfortable because "I love you just the way you are!" (Thanks for the cross-stitch) Well, please remember that I adore you and am impressed by your willingness to learn and your humble and loving attitude. I am greatful to you for making me think and evaluate my own life. Stay strong and keep the faith!

I DO love you,

Elder Gregory S. Woolf

P.S. I thought the card explained it best!

Jennifer is a bit preoccupied with assisting her sister with the formalities of the passing of a loved one, so I hope I don't do any disservice to his memory by writing this blog post. Gerald, Gerry, or Papa Bear as Jennifer lovingly called him, is Jennifer's father. I believe he passed away on June 24th, 2008. He was 80. Grandpa Shepardson was a very talented man, a concert-level pianist and very intelligent. He did a wonderful job of preparing Jennifer to marry me, because he loved music, photography, thrift shopping, "STUFF", dry humor, bad puns, reading, sharing the knowledge of his passions, and sarcasm. I love him and was sad to hear of his passing. I'm not sure if I expressed to Jennifer my admiration for her father, but I certainly hope she knows that I have always felt him to be a kindred spirit from the day I met him face to face. We love you Papa Bear! You will be missed.

Jilly is 4 months old!!

OK I know 4 months isn't really very old...but I am sad that she is growing up at all! I am having so much fun with her! She is happy ALL the time. There is nothing better than being woken up to her talking in her bed in the morning. She doesn't roll much yet - mostly when she is mad. But it's coming. She is VERY strong and it probably won't be long before she is sitting on her own. YEAH!! Isn't she just dang cute!! (I realize I am a bit biased....I say this often don't it) LOL

Her first solid food.....well kind of solid

BEFORE THE FEAST: AFTER THE FEAST: Jilly had her 4 month doctor's appointment today. She weighs in at 13 lbs. 4 oz. (45% of average 4 month olds) and is 25 inches long (80% of average four month olds). She is tall and thin.....not a bad way to be. :-) So after her check up (and the shots - poor thing) the doctor said she was definitely ready for cereal. So we came home and gave it a try. She wrinkled her nose a lot and everything came out at least once before she figured out that she should swallow it. But she was (is) dang cute doing it!! So, now we have a new fixture in the dining room....the high chair. YEAH!!
