day ninety-two: hoorah for israel!
I was just about ready to leave work this afternoon when each of my younger boys called to say Adam's mission call had arrived. "I am being very careful with it and putting it right on the table, Mom," said boy #4.We ended up with 35 people over, all dropping their guesses into the silver bowl, which sat next to the apple pie and cheese and crackers.
Mexico Monterrey East mission. He leaves for the MTC February 24. We are thrilled he will get to speak Spanish, after taking it for four years in high school.
I am ready to pass out. I love my son. I love the church. Hoorah for Israel!

Yipee! How exciting. That's terrific, as you mention, that he can put his Spanish to use. I'm sure that will make his language training so much easier.
*SNORK* The little Boy now has sideburns errrr chops and a Mission call to Mexico. WOW. :-) Congrats, Adam (a.k.a A.B)
I can't stop thinking about him being out there, and it is a WONDERFUL thought. He will be an amazing missionary. Congratulations to all of you. It's a big day!
