You have my permission to do the countdown. Nobody has the right to tell you that you can't!!!! I sooooo know that feeling and you can even count the minutes if you want. Remember, I said so!!!

As Tim Preston's Mom said to us when she was sending one of her sons on his mission: "How can something so good be so hard?!"
We do miss our sons, daughters, (and for us now granddaughter) when they are gone on missions...but the promise from Pres. Hinckley that we often told our missionaries: "You will be blessed every day for the rest of your life for serving a mission."
True...but we still count the days.
Love, Los Petersen - Argentina for 6 more weeks from today.
Thanks for stopping by. I am in a blogging rut but it puts a smile on my face to see how proud you are of your children! The love just shows through!
Wow...under 100 days now...my son still has 375 days!
He'll be home just in time for Mother's Day - what a gift you'll have this year! :)
