I had a great birthday, the best 23rd I've ever had BAR NONE. I came home after a long day of work and school and last minute homework modifications to a house full of balloons! I got everything I wanted: a pony*. Amy is a very sweet and thoughtful wife and she really made my day as she always does. I think I went to Sub Zero Ice cream at least 3 times that day which was nice too. Doug I can't believe you still remember that day, and you know I would run twice as far any day if it would help you out. One memory I have is Doug's mp3 bundle of manna which he would carry from bedroom, to bathroom, to bedroom, to kitchen, to living room, and back again with the words of "Three Towels and a 25 Cent Newspaper" filling the hallway. That's something I want to be better at in this my 24th year, to know what our Prophets and Apostles have said, not just that they have said something. I recall a day in Poland when I had explained that we have a prophet today just like Moses or Peter and I was asked, "Well what does he say?" I couldn't reply immediately and decided then and there that I would at least have 5 current things on my mind that our Prophet has said recently.
Which brings me to my next point, General Conference. I thought it was absolutely amazing this last weekend. Let's share some of our favorite talks or principles discussed how about it? I think my favorite comes from President Monson during the General Priesthood session when he said that, "the face of evil today is tolerance." It had never occurred to me, but that is so very true. What do you all think?
Well, I better go feed Norman my pony.
*I didn't really get a pony, but I did get a soccer ball! Let's play!

I've actually been thinking a lot about the whole tolerance thing. And I concur.
