I know...Less than 24 hours but...I had to send a quick note!


Dear Elder.....I just had to start the letter that way...and besides you are really an elder now so it is totally appropriate!  Well I know that you've been gone less than 24 hours but I still just wanted to send a quick note to tell you again how much I love you Ryan!  I hope that you are getting settled in and are getting to know everyone in your district! It still seems so surreal that you are actually down in the MTC now...crazy!  I was driving dad and Mitch crazy yesterday saying.....I wonder what Ry is doing right now?  I would say this about every 45 minutes or so and they would just humor me and say he's probably in class.  I have to admit the MTC drop off was a great experience...you made it a happy one too!  A person can't help but get caught up in the excitement that place! You guys are all so cute!  The primary song "We'll Bring the World His Truth"  popped into my head this morning just thinking about you and the MTC particularly the chorus ...."we are as the army of Helaman. We have been taught in our youth. And we will be the Lord's missionaries To bring the world his truth!"  As you can imagine I will be singing this out loud all day today while I am cleaning!  I love you Ryan! Have a terrific day!  I can't wait to hear about your experiences later this week!  :) 

Love, Mom
