A Journey of 714 Days.

Here we are at the airport 714 days ago.  A young man who wanted to serve God and go on a mission.   I think he was very scared and yet he got on that plane and left us.  I can't imagine how scared he was, I know that those weeks away from home were sometimes very hard.  I look forward to the days ahead to hear all the stories.
Here we are at the end of the mission journey.  The change is there in this young man who stands tall and confident and ready to take on the world.   714 days away from us changed him in ways we don't even understand yet.  We changed also in ways he probably doesn't yet see.  We now have a few months together before he heads off to his next stage of life.  College, and then a career and hopefully a family of his own.  This journey it was a good journey.  I pray the next steps in our lives will be as wonderful.  Thanks for reading all of his adventures on his mission.  Thanks for your prayers for our son and our family.
