I realize that thousands of moms have sent their sons on missions and it is totally what I would hope he would do at this point in his life but how could it all happen so fast? Johnathon turned his papers into the Stake President on Sunday. President Brewer will be sending them in on the 16th. Now we wait. Tonight Johnathon told me that he could wait to open his letter until whenever Samantha is home after he gets it. It is very good that Johnathon can wait. But I won't be able to. We'll call her on the phone and she can be in on all the action courtesy of Qwest.
Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock.
That smile will take him far.

(How do I type jaw-dropping, tummy-turning and eyes-filling??) Wow. Time flies, eh? These guys are leaving too fast... and Jon looks very handsome. :)
It is an exciting time. I'm happy for you and Jonathon. Missionaries are a great thing. May you have extra waiting strength.

Sister Gay! I heard Jon is going to Washington! Tell him congrats for me!!!
Hey mom! You should update the post! All those poor people who don't know where he is going...
I have been checking this blog EVERY DAY to find out where he is going, and I have to find out via someone elses comment. COME ON! share the news...at least make a post on it with pictures and everything! How else am I going to feel semi-involved in the life of my family?
