Poem for Knox

From Josh's blog

Another for Knox

Another year is here, again,
Why must we remember?
It still hurts to relive the pain,
For hearts that remain tender.

Another year is here, dear boy,
We will not soon forget.
You who are always a joy,
Are waiting for us yet.

Another year is here, still here,
We can only see so far.
You who live without tears,
Free from stain and mar.

Another year is here, sweet child,
But my how you must grow!
In the presence of the Meek and Mild,
We long to know as you know.

Another year is here, yet still,
A part longs for the past.
We miss you as we ever will,
Until Heaven is ours at last.

Another year is hear, God's own,
And God's own you always are.
In our hearts too you are known,
Still close, though yet still far.

Another year is here, and past,
The past is always leaving.
Becoming present is the future, fast,
When fast to you we'll be cleaving.

Another year is here, and soon,
Is the year of never ending.
We're coming upon the Lord's boon,
Our hearts ever ascending.

Typos

A photo caption in the Brigham Young University Daily Universe erroneously referred to the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles of the Mormon Church as "the Twelve Apostates." All 18,000 copies of the newspaper were recalled and destroyed to avoid offending church officials.

Storming the Bastille

A poll found that 45 percent of the French thought it was perfectly acceptable for laid-off staff at three companies to hold top managers hostage - a practice know as "bossnapping."

Gay Tourists

Recession-battered New York City launched an ad campaign aimed at convincing gays and lesbians that a visit to the city is the equivalent of a Muslim pilgrimage to Mecca. The new "Rainbow Pilgrimage" campaign, timed to the 40th anniversary of the Stonewall riots in Greenwich Village, describes a visit to the city as "a rite of passage."

TIES THAT BIND

To talk about Knox or not to talk about Knox...

since the question comes up(though usually not to me) of whether or not to talk of him to me or anyone in the family for that matter, I'll answer. ;-)

If you are talking about him, just to mention him because you think you have to then don't. It will be forced.

If you want to talk of him, but don't because you are afraid to, then do.

If that just leaves you more confused than ever then err on the side of talking. ;-) We like to talk about him just like we do any of our kids.
