Ancestry DNA Kit guidance

Our gift to John & Mercedes were Ancestry DNA Kits. Jessica had them open them at the same time. John prepared his specimen first, since Mercedes ate some melon recently after we opened gifts. An individual must wait thirty minutes after putting any substances in their mouth before filling the valve with saliva. One needs to create an account with ancestry.com before delivering the sample. I don't know if ancestry.com allowed members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to sign in with an LDS.org account previously, but we thought so.  After failing to sign in with Mercedes' LDS.org account, we let John set her up with an account at ancestry.com. There are a few questions to answer, and the identification number needs to be produced to match the specimen with the account. It was simple for them to prepare, and the results will come back in six to eight weeks.

Christmas 2018

Christmas was a little slow. I let myself sleep in some. I wrote a lot, and I practiced Thai a lot. 

We stayed the night at the Ledesma's because Mercedes prepared a Christmas eve dinner, and we celebrated Christmas together too. 

We read the story of the birth of Christ in Luke's epistle to the Gentiles.

The Hicken tradition is to have the oldest child host the present distribution, and we decided that Jessica will host Christmas. She arranged it so each family member opened a gift in order around the room a few times. I got clothing.

We eventually continued the Trash face card game. Jessica was tied with me a lot of the time, but I was usually ahead. Jasmine had a harder time keeping up, but she was on the same phase as John at the end. Jessica would get a lot of wild cards in her hand in many phases of the game, winning the final round with one. John and Jasmine made their last turns, and all I needed to draw to win with Jessica was an Ace or a King. John noticed that my lucky ace was the Ace of Spades, drawing it a lot, because I won the game with Jessica and the Ace of Spades.
