The Boy Is Back In Town


This post is long over due, but since Jacob returned from his mission to Neuqen Argentina life has been whirling to say the least. He returned Wednesday, August 25th. It was a wonderful reunion. Having a son serve a mission fills a mothers heart with immense graditude to the Lord. I knew as he left to serve that he would be cared for by the Lord in ways that not even a mother could provide . For that I was very thankful. The days and weeks that have followed have been very satisfying and rewarding. Seeing the boy who left, though large in stature , returned an amazing man..... Heidi Jane our youngest daughter is off to BYU-Idaho, majoring in music and loving all that college has to offer. We miss having her climb onto our bed to snuggle and watch "The Three Stooges". But knowing that she is not far away helps. I believe Scott has as many withdrawls with Heidi being gone as I did when Jake was on his mission. As much as we love and adore all our children, absence truly does make the heart grow fonder.
