So we dropped Jarrett off on Wednesday Nov. 19. Marta and Melayna and Brian joined us in saying farewell. Jarrett was very anxious to "get going".
We have received our first letter, it was written on the first night. He said they keep the MTC VERY HOT. He was called to be a District Leader that first night. He sounded good. Kailee went to get the mail and was so excited as she opened it, she ripped the envelope in half.
We have also received our first e-mail. He sounds busy and happy. He did say he is very grateful for having a testimony before entering the MTC. He said some Elders are trying to find theirs.
We miss him very much. The downstairs is so empty. That's where is was all the time, either in his room asleep, or down playing x box 360. I need to go in his room and pack things away...maybe in a week or two.
