As I write this letter, my kids are off on an adventure with one of their grandmas. She took the four oldest and planned to be gone for five hours. Rumor was they were going to make cookies and then go see a movie. Brave soul, that grandma! Yesterday, they got to have an adventure with their other grandma. They went to the park with a picnic lunch and popcorn for the ducks. That trip ended early for reasons that shall remain nameless. But they certainly created plenty of fun memories!

This issue we have an article on geocaching, the growing hobby your family can enjoy together. I checked one of the websites listed and found over a thousand geocaches within a few miles of my home. We also have some tips for car trips from a father of four.

Since this month is also Mother’s Day, we have three great articles on enjoying the day, rejoicing even if you aren’t a mother, and the importance of Mom refilling her reserves. Plus great articles on teaching children consequences, our new Family Home Evening lesson feature, and lots more fun stuff you’ll be happy to know about. Happy May!

All the best,
