together again

je suis missionaire!

I'm now a missionary and I leave for the mtc in an hour or so. Thank you everyone for your love and support, for carving me with your kindness and with your examples. I want to be more because of you. My Mom will update this blog with pictures and bits of letters! A bien tot!

Elder Healy

I was so glad to get this picture of Elder Healy today. He's growing up! I haven't seen him in 16 months, but give it another 18 and we'll be inseparable! Hoorah for soul mates!

RAIN OR SHINE

This was the weekend:

RAIN
BLUEBERRY PANCAKES

AND ALI,

ALI MY BOSOM FRIEND

WHOM I CHERISH FOREVER,

RAIN OR SHINE.

So I finally decided on a missionary bag! It's the perfect size, a unique but conservative enough color, and it reminds me of Madeline--the little precocious and curious French orphan who always makes life adventurous! She has no fear; she's a total leader; and she's humble, like the little child she is. So she's all the things I hope to be in France myself. Thank you Ali for the gift and thank you Marta for the find.

I Love Collaging!

I love putting pictures together with words. I can't stop looking at my vibrant collage. It shows me that I'm on the verge of a simple and lovely rebirth. Don't you adore life? Color? Babies? Home? Books? And beautiful truth shines in it all, witnesses of it all. Ah. Drink it in!
