An Open Letter to the Rooster

Posted by Beth

Dear Rooster,

We realize that in every relationship one must have patience and understanding. But you are causing me to quickly lose my patience. Really, 4:39 a.m.????? I mean, if you had started in after the car alarm went off around 5 am, I would have understood. Who didn´t want to start yelling at that point?

Do you remember when you started crowing around 6 am, just when my alarm clock went off? Yeah, that was great! Then you continued every 5-10 minutes, like a snooze button! PERFECT!

I don´t want to tell you how to do your job, I really don´t, but have some sympathy for us missionaries. We may be doing ¨God´s work,¨ but we won´t be afraid to eat you for dinner.

Just as a final reminder...the time to crow is when you see the SUNLIGHT. If it´s dark, and you feel like crowing, please resist the urge, roll over, and go back to sleep. That´s what we are trying hard to do when we hear you at ungodly hours of the night.

Cordially,
Beth and Mary Ann

    It sounds and looks like progress is being made. I'm glad to see that all of you are well (hang in there Beth) and appear to know what you are doing. I know you are glad to have Gary there. We miss you. Wednesday is the fall festival and Baby Mac has a unique costume. Remember in the movie Shrek, when Donkey fell in love with the dragon and they had little donkey-looking babies that could fly? Mac is going to be one of those donkey/dragon babies, but I don't think the costume will enable him to fly. We will see. I know he will probably try. Anyway you know that at choir rehearsal we will be thinking and talking about you and praying for you all because we love you.
