We had the best visit with Elder Stott. It was especially awesome because I got to share Mother's Day with his Birthday. He called at 8 am, his time on his Birthday (May 14) and it was still 11 pm our time here in Oregon on Mother's Day (May 13). Pretty cool.
He looked good and sounded so good, and happy. He did his job of calling all of us to repentance :) Lots of great stuff we can all improve upon. And as hard as it was to hang up after that call, it was so good for my momma's heart to see him and know that he's okay! Miss him so much.
Here's his short email from that day...Made me cry again.
Sorry everyone I was Skyping with my fam instead of writing a detailed email!
Tons of pics for this week though.
Thank you everyone for the birthday wishes! 20 is weird. I
already don't like it. Good thing I'll always be a 16 year old at heart.
Immaturity hopefully makes up for the growing number!!
But more importantly, a shoutout to the best mom in the world
that I could ever ask for. Happy Mother's Day Momma!! Don't forget that the
Stripling Warriors were taught by their MOTHERS, and that's what made them such
amazing young men. I truly feel like I owe it all to my momma. You're the best,
Momma Stott!!
The church is true everyone!!!
By the way this is my last week in Uzhgorod. I'm heading to Хмельни́цький (Khmelnitsky)! My brother said that the names of every city I serve in sound like you have to be dry-heaving to say
it right. Welcome to the most beautiful language in the world, ladies and
gentlemen.
Have a good week!!
