Junk Mail

Seth has always been quite the character. For example see the band-aid on his ear? He hit a sign riding his bike to church. We got to church and Damen came running out to the car saying Seth was in with a member of the bishopric because he had crashed his bike and was bleeding. We found him with his arm and ear all scraped up. Sad thing is his bike took the brunt of it and he bent the frame and wheel and did quite a bit of damage. He's always been too busy enjoying the world and what's happening now to look ahead at what's coming. It could be a great quality just not when he hits signs (probably the 4th or 5th time of doing this).

But that's not the only reason why I sat down to type, I just saw the band-aid in the picture. Today while waiting to go into RS an old primary teacher of Seth's was waiting to go into her classroom. We got to talking and she asked if anyone had told me about when Seth got his birthday card in Primary. "Oh no, what happened," I said, knowing that he had done something. Well in our primary we have a mail box and all the birthday cards and all the cards that say who will be giving a talk, scripture and prayer are in the box. They usually pick someone who's birthday it is to come and open the box. Well I guess Seth was picked so he walked up opened the box, pulled out the cards, sorted through and pulled out his put it aside then proceeded to go through the cards tossing them to the ground saying with each one, "Junk mail, junk mail, junk mail." She could not believe that quite, shy, little Seth would do such a thing. "That was so unlike him, " she said. But I quickly corrected her and informed her that she was finally seeing the Seth that we see all the time. Oh how we love our little comedian that can't stay focused on the signs ahead of him!
