So what is the best gift you can give a mom on Mother's Day? Apparently it's a FaceTime phone call from a boy that she hasn't seen in a year. Seeing his face and getting to talk with him for an hour was a little piece of heaven. He's so happy. He's still so...Jack. We laughed, we cried, and even shared virtual hugs. He told us how happy he is and how much he loves his area, his companion, the YSA members that he serves, his mission president, his fellow missionaries, the food, the culture, the language, the hobbit apartment, the mission car, the gospel, and the Savior. Basically, he's just a boy full of love. My heart aches having to wait another 6 months to enjoy his laugh again, but I am so grateful for the experiences he is having and for the growth and love he has been shown by the lovely people in New Jersey. God is good. Here is a little bit from his letter home on Monday. 
HEY SWEET MOM!

Let me tell ya. Talking to my family is the single most revitalizing thing. Like it grounds me so much and I feel great. BECAUSE YOU'RE SO CUTE! I LOVE YOU. So much. More than I am able to express. I am so thankful for you and for dad and Sam and Matt and Maddie and Rowdy. I love you. Wow I'm so lucky and I'm so happy I was able to talk to you yesterday. I am overwhelmed with love. And it's nice to talk to you 3 DAYS IN A ROW! IT'S LIKE I CAME HOME FOR THE WEEKEND. #BLESSED

So transfers are happening! I'm staying! But I'm losing Elder Contreras. 😓 but that's ok because I'm getting a new companion that is super cool. His name is Elder Nathan Taylor. Super nice guy. Red head. Very funny. So I'm pretty excited. Elder Contreras is going down to zone 8. Love that guy.  Also guess what?? ELDERS HARDING AND JOHNSON ARE COMPANIONS. My MTC comp and my child! Down in Red Bank! How fun.

Today we're going to play games at the park and then probably going grocery shopping and then probably the mall. Who knows. Right now we're doing laundry and I've decided that I love doing laundry. Sorry I made you do all of mine for 20 years lol. You're so nice to me. I love you.

We had a pretty good week this week. I mean last week's of transfers are always a little bit slow but this week we had to help sisters move their apartment and I got some cool art. 

Anyway. You're cute. I'll talk to you more later.
