The Missionary & the WAIT!

Clayton will kill me for this photo, but that is part of the joy of being the mom. I just thought I would write down some of my crazy feelings at this time. Clayton has turned in his papers to serve a 2 year mission for our church, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. We are waiting anxiously to hear where he will be called to serve. I have waited his whole life for this opportuntiy, and I am so excited for him, and yet I will miss him terribly!

Laurel Trip




SMILE! "Spiritually minded is life eternal." 2 Nephi 9:39. This was the theme of our weekend. We had a great time. We stayed at the Palazzo Hotel on the 41st floor, swam, rode in a limo, ate dinner at the top of the Stratosphere, watched the water show at the Belagio, went through museums, ate dessert and Godiva chocolate at 11:30 at night, went on gondola rides and really nourished our souls in the gospel.
I have been so blessed to have been able to work with these young women, and their leaders. They have strengthened my testimony, lifted my feeble knees, and followed where I have led. Thank You!
