Well, we officially have our first missionary cousin. Grace entered the virtual MTC last Tuesday. We got to spend time with Sister Walter before she was set apart watching a movie and eating brownies and ice-cream. We also went swimming at the lake. Then we got to spend time with her after she was set apart what a unique experience. Often I have heard of youth choosing to delay their mission because of COVID, and certainly being stuck in an apartment with your companion sharing the gospel virtually doesn't sound like what we typically think of as a mission; however, what a blessing and a sacred honor to be chosen to lead the way forward to utilizing technology to share the gospel. Grace you were born for such a time as this, go forth!
We spent time at the lake and at the pool. Ashton took off in one of the paddle boats and we didn't see him for the rest of the morning. He would jump off from time to time and go for a swim and then someone would race out to help him back into the boat because he couldn't do it on his own. He looked so independent, happy and free.
