It's hard to believe that James (Uncle Yamo) has been out serving the people in Mexico City for a whole year now! This is a picture of him with Mom and Dad right before he left. I just love hearing from him each week and am so proud of him for accepting the call to serve. I am grateful for the example he has set for our sons. We pray for him each night and I just love to hear the boys say, "Please bless Elder Rock on his mission and bless that we can go on a mission one day." People don't believe me when I tell them that in ONE month's time his area baptized over 1,000 people. His mission has the highest number of baptisms per month in the whole world! I miss him and love him and hope that the next year will go by as quickly as the last!!!

It does just seem like you talking about him leaving. It is amzing how time flies when having fun, lol!
It's so fun to have a missionary out and see the effects that they have on your kids, my brother just returned home this past May and it was amazing that after a week's time we never had to remind Brendan to include the missionary in his prayers. It amazes me the blessings that, even just being the sisters of the missionaries, we recieve--all because these awesome brothers and boys we grew up with were willing and worthy to serve.
I can't believe Yamo has been gone for a whole year. Then again, I can't believe Justin has been home for almost a year and a half. It's fun! Next time you talk to James tell him that we said hi, and ask him if he wants any "Eggs?"
