There is a new missionary in town...

Running on pure adrenaline the past two days, I am officially exhausted (emotional drain, I can't imagine how those missionaries feel right now?).
Two phone calls later, we talked, I got to tell him how much I love him!!
I got to hear how much he loves us!!  A few funny stories, a little bit of Spanish and some sniffling tears of joy!

The missionary should have been in Paraguay about 30 min ago!!!

If all went well with the last flight. I was able to find all his flights and check on them and the weather all the way to Brazil... not one delay (is that weird that I stalked him all the way down?), but from Brazil to Paraguay they do not share that information on their websites.

It's funny as much as I stalk etc... that I am not the least bit worried about him arriving, his safety, or his luggage (which I have heard often gets lost on that last transfer).  I have so much peace and joy in my heart right now, my cup is totally full!!!

I can't wait to hear from him on P-day (when ever that is for him now???) !!!

It's in the air...

Fall Excitement is in the air!
It's the eve of "the missionaries" departure from Provo to Paraguay!
Which means we should get to hear his sweet darling angel voice!
I can't sleep, I can even go into my bedroom to sleep!
I want tomorrow to be here. (I suppose if I sleep that will get here faster... hmmm)
I had a small little set back with a note from him earlier this week, to break the news that I wouldn't be hearing from him from every airport and using up every minute on his phone card!
But I am so grateful he has an attitude towards following the guidance given by his Branch President, which makes me a very proud and happy Mom.  And only a little sad.
I can't wait to hear his voice.
To know he is good, and happy.
Actually I don't need the phone call for that, I can feel it in his letters.
I guess I selfishly just want him to know how much I love him!
There are only so many "o's" I can add to the end of my letters.... saying "I love you sooooooooooooooooooooo much!"
It will just be really nice to check in with him as he departs the USA and begins the next leg of his journey.
I am really excited for him.
God is good!!
God is really good, He knows us, and He loves us!
He sent His son.  I am grateful.
Sooooooooooooooooo grateful!!
