1 year down, 1 year to go!!!!!

I thought this picture would be fitting of Elder Galvan! Wow, I can't believe this day is here. One year-- down. It seriously has gone by so fast! Everyone always told me-- it goes by so slow for the mom, but I must say-- for me, it has gone by fast.
So, a year ago today-- we were dropping him off "curbside" at the MTC. I was so worried about my baby boy. But, he is amazing-- he is such a wonderful missionary & has completely been the missionary I knew that he would be.
I am so proud of him, I know that his dad is proud of him, most of all I know his Father in Heaven is proud of him.
I thought today I would be an emotional wreck, because on his birthday wow-- I was crazy emotional-- so I just figured today would be no different--
I was o.k., UNTIL..... I opened an email one of my best friends Amy Hancock sent to me yesterday-- she had sent me a you tube video to watch. I am going to put the link on here-- with a warning:
WATCHERS BEWARE--- WATCH WITH TISSUES IN HAND

I promise you that if you have a missionary, have had a missionary, have a son, know a missionary, or basically HAVE tear duct's you will NEED tissues!!!!!!!

This will be me in one year from today!!! Who is coming with us to the airport??? I will need help, because-- my sweet husband will be in Nicaragua with Val & will be coming off of the plane with my missionary. So, he will already have been re-united with our missionary. So, I will need as many as my friends there with me as possible.
Anyway, I am so honored to be a missionary mom. Happy to be at one year today!!!!!
I love my missionary!!!!
