I'm reminded of their age every time we have them over for dinner and listen to them talking...until they get to the lesson. They mature quickly at that point! ;)
Ha! I remember one of my sisters writing something similar in a letter home after she had to watch greatest moments in Michael Jordan history and participate in a donut eating contest at a district meeting.
