Yea! My son left in May. He’s in Fresno, CA speaking Spanish and LOVING it. What language does your son know? Mine was/is very excited to be speaking Spanish–he was already fluent so only had 2 weeks at the MTC. It’s very strange having them not accessible. I know you’re great friends with your boys like I am with mine.
We’re glad we had a year with him at BYUI before he went. It was like a stepping stone. He was gone, but we still had family prayer with him on Skype every day and talked every night. This has been hard though. Some days harder that I expected; but a lot of days easier. I’ve just been so grateful he got over Lyme Disease and could go finally–that has kept me from getting too sad.
I hope he can type really fast so you get long emails!
Congrats to you all!
