The Countdown


Well, I have decided that I will officially start counting down the days. In exactly one month my baby will be returning from his mission to the Oklahoma Tulsa Mission! I am excited. We will have a wonderful Father's Day celebration! His homecoming is on Sunday, June 19th at 9am in Corvallis 2nd Ward. We will celebrate with family and friends at 1pm that day! These last few months have just DRAGGED for me. But I am happy now to realize how close it is. I have the official travel plans, but Josh's current companion is trying to talk the mission president into a 1 transfer extension. I don't think they do those anymore, but I am so happy that they are doing so well together and are finding success in their teaching. I am a HAPPY MOMMA!!

I a happy for you too. What a happy time for you. I remember how excited I was when my two missionaries were coming home. I was a bit disappointed that they were not nearly as excited as I was.... they both had a hard time leaving the mission field even though they were glad to see us. It took them a while to adjust. Don't worry if it takes a little while for your boy to get use to being home. I'm told that is normal....
Goodness gracious.... I don't mean to sound negative.... I think it is wonderful that your son has served the Lord on his mission and that he will soon be home in you arms again.
Congrats and love, Lura

Oh I am so excited for you! It's so neat and scary to see Josh all grown up now. We can't wait to hear all about it and see pictures!
