Soon to be….

My parents have put their papers in for a mission…. I don't know how to feel about this yet.  I know how I am suppose to feel, and act so that is what I have done, but when it comes down to it… I think my own feelings are going to break out.  I am going to miss them soooooo much!  I really don't know if I can live without my parents for that long.  They are such amazing people, the best parents, and grandparents in the world, and I don't really know if I can share.  :)

But at the same time I feel like they are already on a mission.  I don't get to see them as much as I want.  They are traveling all over the place and gone a ton that way.  Just in the last month they have been to Wyoming camping, and Montana,  our house, Salt Lake for a few days, then to California to work on the Temple, and then to St. George for a week and a half, then at our house again for a day and one night, and then to New York, on a cruise to Canada, and then home for a few days and then back to Park City, then to Texas.  They don't ever sit still!

It is not only going to be so hard for me, my kids, siblings, and all the grandkids, but I know it is going to be hard for them to be away from all of us.  My dad was saying a little while ago that he was worried about my mom and didn't know if she could do it.  He said they went camping and planned on staying for three days and after the first night she wanted to pack up and go home because she missed the grandkids.  

It is going to be interesting to see where they are called and I know that it is going to bring so many blessings for them, and all of us, and it is setting such a great example for all the grandkids, but I am  already missing them just thinking about it.  I think they put in for a one year mission because my mom is going to be sealed to her family when my Grandpa goes through the temple in a year.  They really want to make sure they can make it home without any problems for that.   I love my parents so much and think they are the best two people in the whole world!  I guess it might be alright to share them with someone for a little while…… '
It is going to be so exciting to see where they are  called!  so to be continued…..
