From Melanie in Regards ot the Request to Please answer right away!
Howard's brother, Neil came in yesterday for a visit, and I had to take someone to hear the results of her biopsy. I haven't had time to check the email until this morning. Go ahead with the work. Some things you don't delay, especially when she wants the work done so desperately.
Have a great time. I wish I could have been there, but I will be there by proxy--Siovhan is going to put in an appearance. Make sure you curtsey and bow when the Princess arrives. I love you.

It is ready.
Last Friday evening, when we were at the temple, I was the greeter at the door. When Mona and Levon Grundvig came to the temple she said, “Good, I have a gift for you and now I won’t have to find you.” Then she handed me Grandma Edna’s file sheet approved and ready to do the work. The baptism, as you know, was done in her youth. The initiatory and endowment are ready to be done. She thought, since I have talked to her many times, that I may like to do the work.
If you would like to be there, at the temple and on the session, let me know. I don’t know how you feel about our doing the work on Saturday. Julie and AnnMarie have urged me to go ahead because they think Mom has waited long enough. They cannot be in attendance. Eric said he thought I should go ahead and then, as part of your party, we could celebrate the work being done.
The sealing to her parents is not going to be done until later. Her last brother died some months ago and Levon wants to wait until he gets that work done and then have the family sealed all at once.
He could apply for and get permission to do the family work because Grandma Edna’s mother was a Grundvig. Since he is living head of the family line and a blood relative he does not need my half-sister’s nor my father’s permission.
Kirsten called last night and when I told her she said that she would be happy either way. If we wanted to wait until summer so we could all be there, she would be OK with that or she would be OK with doing it now. Please let me know what you think in a fast hurry.
Hurry a reply!!!!

How Do You Feel About This?
Last Friday evening, when we were at the temple, I was the greeter at the door.

The baptism, as you know, was done in her youth. The initiatory and endowment are ready to be done. She thought, since I have talked to her many times, that I may like to do the work.
Kirsten is coming for the farewell party for Todd. It is a surprise for him. Kirsten was wondering if we could, by any stretch do it this Saturday, while she is here. If you would like to be there, at the temple and on the session, let me know. I don’t know how you feel about that. Julie and AnnMarie have urged me to go ahead because they think Mom has waited long enough. They cannot be in attendance.

Dad and I are scheduled to do the Adam and Eve part on Saturday at noon. I am thinking, that if Kirsten wants, I can do the initiatory on Friday and she could do Grandma Edna’s endowment.

Toren and his Teacher and Valentine's Day

Toren wanted to buy his teacher chocolate for Valentine's Day today. I told him, no, we were giving her braclets (we had made the ones from Family Fun for the girls in his class). Not catching onto to fact that we had already made them. He says, "great, we can go to that diamond store in the mall and get her a braclet there." I told him, wow, he must really love his teacher. He then got all worried about the girl thing (he doesn't care for them, unless there are no boys to play with) and said no. I may have ruined him for his future wife. The kid was ready to head to the diamond store for a woman and I teased him!
Myrna writes:
OK, I'll tell his future wife that it is all your fault that he only got her a plain band. Bet he changes his mind by then. Thanks for sharing this cute story of the adorable kid with us.
Dad says to tell you that we have Toren's hat. We will mail it to you.
Have a great day!
Love, Myrna

His Disneyland hat? When are we going to see you, hate for you to have to mail it.

I don't know when we will see you. That is why we are mailing it. Love, M

You Got A Friend
From Else:
Hej Myrna og Trauntwein
Thanks for your letters. I never get around to doing much anymore. It seams like I am always busy, but never gets anything done. Right now I am sitting here by my computer, because there isn’t anywhere else to be in the house. Erling is taking the old lack off the floor downstairs so all the furniture is up here and there is dust everywhere. And then Daniel has moved in with all his furniture, well most of them. Just before Christmas he met some rocker like gays, that wanted him to work under them, and when he would not, the started fighting him. But they shouldn’t have, because when Daniel gets scared, he just hits back. They got so mad, so they came home to him the day before Christmas with a big iron thing used to tare down all houses. We call it a “Koben” and broke down the door and broke his light, his television and his bookcases. So he did not dare stay down there. The police said he had good reason to be scared. But it doesn’t make it more orderly. We have send Daniel and Line to stay with friend, while we are doing this. Erling is so tired, he is working so hard, that poor man. We are going to Århus during the week-end, so our floors can dry up while we are away. Then we are going to have all the furniture back next week. Saturday Janne will be over, and we are going to have a baby shower for Lea, who is going to have a baby in Martz. Janne and Mikkel are going to have another one in July. Mikkel has finally got a job. It is down by Soenderborg, so they will be moving down there. He shall begin 1st of Martz. It a real pretty area, with the fjord on one side and the woods on the other side. There is a little Branch in Sonderborg. I am still enjoying the temple. I try to go every Wednesday, but this week I going Thursday, for Erling wants me out of the house for as long as possible.
Remember we love you two
Love Else & Erling
Else and Erling
From Myrna: I would be terrified if I were Daniel!!!!!!
Tell all your children that we think of them often.
Our new next door neighbors (they just moved in at Christmas time when our old neighbors left) have Danish family in Arhus. The wife, next door, is Anna Marie. Her mother was converted to the church in Arhus and baptized there in 1968, I think she said. I will find out more and, perhaps, you might know them. She said her Grandfather and Grandmother still live in Arhus and she, Anna Marie, is going to visit this summer. The Grandfather has cancer.
Is Lea still with the fellow we met? Tell her congratulations on the family addition.
Tell Janne and Mikkel that we are happy for them.
We are having a new addition to our family this year, as well. AnnMarie is having a baby in August. She is quite sick this time. This will be her fifth baby and, more than likely, her last. She has to have Caesarian sections.
Our son, Todd and his family, are moving to Ohio for his work. It is a transfer and promotion. For that we are happy but it is a long way away and we will see them less. That means that Kirsten and family are in Colorado and Melanie and family are in Massachusetts. That gives us three out of state.
We miss you all of the time!
Love, Myrna and Leonard

From Vance Gibson
Dear Myrna:
I thought Leonard told me you were already a bear some days!
Vance
From: vgibson@bigzoo.net If you're a bear, you get to hibernate. You do nothing but sleep for six months.
I could deal with that.
Before you hibernate, you're supposed to eat yourself stupid.
I could deal with that, too.
If you're a bear, you birth your children (who are the size of walnuts) while you're sleeping and wake to partially grown, cute cuddly cubs.
I could definitely deal with that.
If you're a mama bear, everyone knows you mean business. You swat anyone who bothers your cubs. If your cubs get out of line, you swat them too.
I could deal with that.
If you're a bear, your mate EXPECTS you to wake up growling. He EXPECTS that you will have hairy legs and excess body fat. He KNOWS not to get between you and the food.
Yup..... Gonna be a bear

Dear Myrna: Thank you SO much for the lullaby. I needed that. Actually, what I need is a knock in the head with a baseball bat. I quite often can't sleep. As for getting the stuff, I definitely will get it now. If you had not changed the address, however, I would not have gotten it past tonight, cause that's when BigZoo went out of business. The e-mail server has been set to check both accounts, but no longer. I see your niece, Lynda Hale, at dialysis three days a week. She's the "clinical coordinator." (If you can't give 'em a big salary, give them a title and an office!!!) She keeps talking about "Uncle Tim." What's with that? Tim? I hope you and Leonard are doing fine. Behave yourself. Vance
M: By-the-way, a baseball bat is too hard! Think of the headache you'd have and
you probably still couldn't sleep. (My family calls me Murndurn.) What are
families for? Just to embarrass you all of your life, right? Myrna
From Vance Gibson
Dear Myrnita:
Please change my address on your LISTS as well as in your address book.
It is: vgibson@gobigwest.com
Muchismas gracias, senora Trauntvein.
Vance
