It Came...And....She's Going To......

September 28, 2008

This is her...Sis. Auntie Beth...Friday evening at The Boy's football game, in a remote town in New Mexico...and I do mean remote! My Cel. phone rings and it is our Mother. She says that a letter has arrived from church headquarters for Auntie and what should she do with it. I, having been through this very experience myself, knew immediately what it was and so quickly passed the phone to Auntie. After many tears, she announced that she would be going here....
To Boston Mass. to serve her mission, speaking Spanish! A bit stunned, and emotional, but excited, ready to begin this next experience of her life.
She will leave very soon, and is very happy about that. It will be cold, but she isn't worried about that she just wants to serve. She is ready!

We are thrilled for her! We love having her here during this special time. Her excitment is a blessing in our home and encouraging The Darlings! The Farmer says that there couldn't be a better place in the whole world for her...this is where she is supposed to be! I couldn't agree more!

Yay, the East Coast!!! Too bad it's not a tad bit south. Maybe Sister Auntie Beth would have been in my ward!!

Nice, post great picture of Beth. After your last post I was worried this was becoming "flowers.cupcakes & aprons.blogspot.com" :)

I agree with Pres. Farmer, perfect place for Beth, and Spanish speaking too. If only England Leeds Mission would have been Spanish speaking.

Amy and I are very happy for her!

Beth,We are so very, very, excited for you. Boston will be so awesome. What a historical place. Is this bad to say, that It would be so fun to make a "Big" Skinner Trip, out of going back to pick you up. I guess we better just worry about getting you there first. So happy for you. We will see you this Tuesday morning. We Love You so much! Jen, Nate and Family
