TREATS for a MISSIONARY MOM!

So, Wade leaving has been hard, but rewarding! The day he left I had 4 voice lessons that afternoon. One of my students, Brynne Bonham, brought me ICE CREAM! She said she couldn't drive to Texas, but thought this would do. I love Ben & Jerry's so it was good. NOT GREAT like BlueBell, but it did help. Yesterday evening my friend Michelle Kendall brought over HONOLULU COOKIES. She is the mother of Wade's good friend Chandler Kendall who is leaving March 17 for Johannesburg, South Africa on his mission! She just got back from a vacation in Hawaii and thought of me. Those cookies are YUMMY! I have great friends. I am blessed everyone is concerned about me. I am doing fine, it's just certain moments when I see his guitar and miss the sounds I heard him play every day...things like that. I did get a call from one of his best friend's mom (Michael/Suzanne Hess) who works at the MTC and happened to be there the day Wade checked in. It was WONDERFUL to hear that he came in with a smile and the same determination he left us with. She was the one who pinned his name tag on! Lucky. She told me to watch general conference during the break in between because KSL news was filming all the missionaries the day Wade entered. They were filming to celebrate 50 years of Formal Training of Missionaries at the MTC. He could be on there, but for sure, some of his friends going to Hawaii will. That made me happy! She has quite the job. I'm jealous. She also told me his companions name is Elder Brough from Syracuse, Utah. I'm so glad to know he is alright and happy. I know he is an amazing missionary already.
