Uncle Seth

Today we were discussing with our children some of the events for this upcoming week. I told them that Aunt Monika and Uncle Seth should be coming sometime late Thursday night and leaving Saturday. Ruth cheered and said, "We haven't seen Uncle Seth for a really long time." Kate said, "The last time we saw Seth he was just a dumb teenager." Ruth then stated that Seth must not like people very well because he never visits them. I then laughed and corrected Kate by saying, "Actually, Seth was a returned missionary before you were even born. In fact, Seth is 30. He is only two years younger than me." Then with a little bit of awe Ruth and Kate both said, "You are 32!!!" I said, "Well, yes in three weeks." Then Ruth firmly stated, "Seth should get married soon!" Well I think we all agree with that.

I think that is so funny

*grin* Why doesn't Seth get married? I can't picture him as an adult. Or any of your other siblings as adults, either. Strange.

It doesn't seem fair to make comments about Seth, since he might not have read the story, which I know is true, however, I am sure he will agree that marriage is great when you find the right person....remember your brother is a shy guy...mom
