I received all of these VERY FUN WONDERFUL things yesterday sent to me by a special, dear lady who lives in Alaska. All of the gifts are uniquely Alaskan.
I was in tears opening the package. I am in tears writing this blog. I contact missionary's mothers who are serving within our branch. I email them photo's of their sons (taken when they are in our home). I call them sometimes. I let them know what faithful, valiant sons they have. I know how much it's meant to me to have that connection and experience. I know it brightens their day and it brightens mine as well. I know a missionary mother lives for those letters and photo's and to get either, or hear from someone who just had them in their home is such a special treat.
Well one of the mothers of a current missionary, sent me this yesterday. I was overwhelmed. This was such a kind and thoughtful thing to do. It makes me want to visit her in Alaska VERY MUCH! She is a strong woman who has faith and courage and has taught me more than she'll ever know. It felt like Christmas yesterday! Thank you Marsha!

That was very nice of her. Since you are a missionary mom, I'm sure you can appreciate that more than most. Thanks for sharing.
