March 10th, 2009 Letter to Hannah

Dear Hannah,
Sorry I haven’t written you in a while. I promise I’m going to start doing better with that. Mom and Dad told me you’re getting into crafts now. That’s awesome! You should make something and send me a picture of it or something. How’s my dog treating you? Is she still cute and hyper and hilarious? How’s school and how are your friends? Your friends are really important. They can either help you choose the right or they will lead you down some other path. Make sure you have good friends. Remember one of my favorite scriptures in Moroni 7: 16-17: “Everything which inviteth to do good, and to persuade to believe in Christ, is sent forth by the power and gift of Christ, wherefore ye may know with a perfect knowledge it is of God.” Sammy sounds like a good friend. It may seem random that I am writing to you about this but I’ve seen lots and lots of people in California that have made REALLY bad choices because they chose the wrong friends. I’m thankful for my friends and the good choices they’ve helped me make. I’m also VERY grateful for Mom and Dad. You will notice more and more that they are the two best friends Heavenly Father has given you.
Well guess what? Both Elder Bliss and Elder Frampton have told me that I fart, giggle and talk in my sleep. I’m a very active sleeper I guess. At least I don’t snore like a grizzly bear (Elder Bliss makes Dad’s snoring sound like nothing).
So are you still listening to Coldplay? Coldplay’s awesome. I approve. I kind of miss my music but not too much. I listen to LDS artists now like Jessie Clark Funk, Mindy Gledhill, Alex Boye and Paul Cardall. They are pretty good actually. Well its bet time. I love you Hannah! Give Mom and Dad a hug for me!!
Love,
Elder Tyler Lewis
