The "Call" and more MTC

On Monday...we finally got the "call". We were so excited to talk to Jordan and hear is voice...what I didn't expect was the emotion I would feel with it. I thought for sure he would say "Hey fam..." or something is Spanish but it was "Mooommm" you know like that little voice that calls out to you in the night. It totally melted my heart and made me cry. Of course the phone was instantly handed to Larry while I tried to control my emotions. (Let's go with that I was really trying to get the other phone on speaker so we could all hear...LOL) I heard him say, "oh brother mom..." which made me laugh. We then spent the next hour and a half talking to a very humble and grown up Jordan. He filled us in on life and the MTC and we did the same. It was so wonderful to hear his growth. We had the opportunity to hear from him again shortly after that when his plane had been delayed and then again when he had a layover in Dallas. THREE times we got to talk to him that day!!

On the last time he called a couple of his friends were here to talk to him. One asked him to tell us a cool story. He said that it actually had just happened. On his flight down to Dallas he was sitting by a 20 year old guy in the military. The guy asked Jordan what is was all dressed up for and Jordan explained he was going on his mission. Well, I guess the guy ended up asking questions the whole flight...Jordan said he didn't have to ask him any cause the guy kept asking. Right before Jordan left the MTC he bought a small Book of Mormon to take with him...well, he asked the guy if he would like it and the guy said yes!! He also gave him a referral card. How cool is that!!

The hardest part was saying goodbye. I once again ached at not seeing him for two years but couldn't be prouder of what he is doing and accomplishing. He survived the MTC, was a Zone leader, and great friend and example to all of us.

The next day I got in the mail another memory card filled with over 100 pictures!! What a good boy I have...ha ha ha!! LOVE IT!!!
