So we have arrived with a bang, buzz, ringing, loud alarm going off at the house bugging the neighbors, no way to turn it off, finally get it powered down and disabled. The Fosters are official here! The kids started school a few weeks ago and are doing well. We have visited the La Brea Tar Pits, Disney Land/California Adventure, the California Science Center, and of course the beach. We are having a good time, but not enjoying the rude RUDE drivers. Wade is counting down his days until he is done, and we are in the process of sifting through possible job offers/locations.
Wade has discovered the perils of teaching Elders Quorum in liberal LA. He taught a lesson yesterday on marriage, and listed what he felt were some of the things assaulting the institue of marriage such as homosexuals trying to redefine the meaning of marriage, dead beat dads, ect. He mentioned living in the South and seeing what dead beat dads were doing to the black culture and what a problem it was for them especially. After class, as I was coming in with the kids, he was being layed into by a guy claiming that adultery is more to blame for problems with marriage than homosexuals and that he was a racists for his comments on blacks. I made a quick exit with the kids and didn't catch the rest. Then in the parking lot he was approached by another guy he was asking a question about sticking to principles and what about singles who are at dances where there is really no interaction going on between the sexes? What????? Needless to say, he probably won't accept an offer to fill in again. I told him to blow it off and to remember it is always right to stick up for what is right and true and reminded him about what the proclamation on the family says.
