I'm just writing again because today you have been gone 1 week. The wait to get a letter from you is killing us! I heard that maybe your p-day is Thursday so I'm holding on until then. I hope you are doing wonderful. I hope and pray you are happy doing the Lords work. I hope you are making great friendships. I hope you are learning some spanish. I hope your testimony is growing and you feel the companionship of the spirit. President Boyd K. Packard says "There are few things more powerful than the prayer of a righteous mother." If there is power in my prayers then you should feel our family's love wrapped around you. We pray for you ALL the time! We all agreed last night at FHE that no prayer will ever be said in our home that does not pray for your safety, happiness, growth and success. I hope you feel that.
I miss you so very much! I can only let you go for two years if you promise me that these two years will be worth it in your life and others. Make the most of this time to do the hard work to change your life and improve yourself and take this time to share the gospel message to bless others. Leave it all on the field:) This is such an exciting time for for and you are going to do amazing things that will translate into making you an even more incredible man. You will have the rest of your life to look back on your mission with either pride or regrets. Be proud of your work. We are so proud of you and your willingness to serve your Savior. So very proud!
I'll keep this short because I already wrote you a long letter and I don't want to take up all your computer time. I want you to be able to write us and tell us all that is going on! I can't wait to hear from you and know the details of this week! Know how much we love you! Abby, G and I all take turns sleeping in your bed because we all want to feel closer to you. Getting a first letter will help. I love you my son… sooooo much!
