Odds and Ends (Mostly odds)!

All twelve of our grandchildren! About 12 years ago! hahaha

Two of our children were born in the USA, one in Tonga, and one in American Samoa. They were mostly raised in the South Pacific islands. In school, they were taught under the British system, so their alphabet is different, and many words are pronounced differently. Even though they were raised in the islands, one is now a colonel in the U.S. Air Force, and our daughter has her own medical clinic, taking care of patients from a nearby city. Our second son is a successful entrepreneur who sells curriculum to school districts, and our youngest is a graphic artist/designer and singer/songwriter. It is interesting to note that they can pick and choose from the best of each culture they were raised with, depending on the situation, and use it to their benefit.

Out of our twelve grandchildren, two have graduated from college, one will be soon, three are currently attending university, two are still in high school. One. is on a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Brazil. Another will be leaving soon for his mission in Japan. Another is preparing to go on his mission.
