This morning we dropped my mom off at the MTC. I have to admit, I think up until then I was in denial as to what was about to happen. I shed some tears. I know I will shed more on Saturday when she gets on her plane. It helped that after being in the MTC for a couple of hours she called and said that she would be done at 4pm and could leave. So, I asked if I could come and take her to dinner. I did. It was great.
I am going to miss her terribly. She is the person I call whenever I need help or advice. She is always there to comfort and serve. Plus, I genuinely love being with her. She is one of my very best friends. I am proud of the sacrifice she is making to spread the Gospel, but man, I will be counting the days until she comes home!
