It was every bit of two years, but it was worth it. My son has returned with honor, a new and improved version of the son we sent out. I can't say it was painless for me, but the man he has become could not have been produced by staying here. Every time he comes into the room, it is such a joy to see him. We had EVERYONE together for Sunday dinner, and I have to say, it was heaven...even though we ran short on the gnocchi, it was wonderful! We also took over sacrament meeting, with the 17 year old DD, 19 year old pre-missionary DS and the RM giving talks. Then the 11 year old DD sang Joseph Smith's First Prayer a cappella. It was the first time in forever that our entire family was at church together, even my SIL.
I am blessed...
