For Christmas my brother Jacob asked for only one thing: Music. And since I'm me, I didn't give it to him until I knew FOR SURE what he was allowed to listen to. (And because Jacob's the one sending me via email a list of what he can listen to, I haven't even come close to sending his package out. What a blessing it is to be next to a BYU-Bookstore (not to mention the DeseretBook store in town). Today I sort of splurged on my big brother. I went a bought two CD's that I'm anxious to have him listen to, I'm on my way to town to pick up another CD, and I also bought him postcards -that I'll be sending to him, so that he can savor them and cherish them always. I bought him a "Return with Honor" bookmark with a plus of an attached scripture marker, and three wallet cards that will surely make him cry. -At least they made me cry ...almost.
In addition to this package that I will be sending him, I will of course, throw in his
favorite no-bake cookies and maybe a few ties. I guess that leaves me with one question to ask. Since this is his belated "Christmas" present, my question then is: What should I get him for his birthday in April? My brain is dead and full of school. Please help.

Well, just say that is both birthday and Christmas present, so killing two birds with one stone.
In his letters he talked about a tape recorder and tapes so we could hear each others voices. We thought that would be nice so for Christmas we bought him a $40. tape recorder and a package of tapes. We chose the standard size so we wouldn't have to go out and buy one for us to exchange tapes with him.
If you want to spoil him he said he would have liked a small one so he could carry it around and do other things with it.
He will love the no bake cookies they are his all time favorite.
Good luck!
Love you, Mom
