Kendall's conscience

Kendall (age 9) - "I was going to go to sleep because I thought you guys were mad at me. Then I had a good discussion with myself and myself made me come down and say I'm sorry."

It is so nice to have a daughter that is so trustworthy. Thank you Kendall for being such a wonderful daughter!!! We love you!!
