Josh... Getting Ready

I find myself surprised that the days are winding down and that soon Josh will be leaving for a 2 year mission for our church. These two have been inseparable for two years now, even when Josh lived in Michigan, we felt he was with us. Where did the time go? There is no place I would rather have him be as he builds a strong foundation for the rest of his life while serving the Lord and others, yet I am sad too. I am attached to him, we all are ... amazing how deep and strong love can grow. Doctor and dentist appointments, mission pictures, appointments with our Bishop and Stake President are all in the process and soon his papers will be handed in and within two weeks we will know where he will be spending the next two years. My fingers are crossed, but I already know he will be called to go where he is supposed to go, wherever that ends up being :)
Love, Brenda

Josh looks pretty good all cleaned up and shaved! The next several weeks will fly by and soon you'll be blogging "...the envelope please." You all are in our prayers, especially Josh and Kelsie.

Oh my, oh my... my heart ached a little bit reading this post. Sooooo many mixed emotions- but such a great adventure ahead of them.
