The children of my brothers and sisters are very special to me. The brother next after me took his wife and two daughters to Costa Rica to become missionaries. He wrote that their older girl, Sharon, age 5, was learning to read, but she didn’t want her parents to know this because she wanted them to read to her. I decided to show her there are rewards for learning to read, so I wrote to her that if she learned to read and her mommy and daddy sent me a letter saying she could read I would write her a story. Soon I received a letter from her saying she could read and asking me to write her a story. When her family was back here for their first furlough with a baby brother and she was eight I gave her her story for Christmas.
Not long after that I received a letter from her younger sister, Becky, asking me to write her a story. I hadn’t expected to have to write another one, and it took me a year to think up a plot. Becky received her story at their next furlough, when she was nine.
Andy didn’t get his story until he was 15 and living with his parents at a new mission in Spain. It was delivered to him by his Aunt Mary and Uncle Peter who were on their way back to their mission in Japan.
