Andrew wrote us a
letter bragging about how much money he was able to save on his missionary card
this past month and of course Mom and Dad immediately wrote him letters separately
telling him how he needs to spend a little extra to eat good food, not Top
Ramen Noodles, so he can stay healthy. The following letter came to us in the
mail in reply. What can we say -- the kid has a sense of humor:
Chp 1
1)
In the beginning was
the lesser food, and the higher food. And the lesser food was not good for it
was lesser.2) And in the beginning was the mother, and the mother taketh no part in the lesser food, for it [1]stinketh like unto the father.
3) And the mother raise up her kin on the higher food.
4) And they partook of the higher food, and did rejoice for it was [2]exceedingly fine.
5) And this was, and is the beginning. Amen
Chp 2
1)
For this cause that
the mother did raise up her kin on the higher food, that they may leave and
continually rejoice together in the higher food.2) Verily, thus sayeth the son; I shall continually partake of the higher food. For I know that the lesser food doth stinketh like unto the [3]father.
3) And I know like unto the mother that the lesser food is not for the [4]belly.
4) Verily, verily these things hath the son said, and he also sayeth: For the lesser food is for the tossing of the [5]swine, and I shall partake only of the higher food, and [6]rejoice thereof.
5) And it came to pass that the lesser food took no part in the son’s kitchen, for he did surround himself only with the higher food.
6) And the son did eat all the day of the higher food, such as: rice, potatoes, pasta
7) Chicken breast, wings, fresh [7]fruit, yea, even all manner of green things.
8) But the lesser food was not found.
9) And the son prayeth both night and day that he may rejoice [8]with the mother over the higher food, but yea, she must remember the beginning.[9]
