We dropped Nate off at the MTC one week ago today. He was excited to get started. It was harder for me than I thought it would be. I hadn't thought of the sacrifice that parents make in sending their kids on missions. I am so grateful for the missionary program. There is no way that we could provide the same growth and same blessings to Nate in two years.
Here is his first letter:
Dear Family,
I just finished my first day at the MTC and it was harder than I expected. I am still confused about a lot of things and I don't know if I will like it here. I kinda wish that I could just go to Georgia right now. But I do like my companion. His name is Elder Silvey and he seems like a pretty cool guy.
Sorry it's kinda short. No details this time mom because I have to go to bed but I miss you guys and I hope these two years will go by as fast as everyone says they will. I know I will come to love it but its a little hard right now. But anyways I love you guys and I will pray for you.
Love,
Nate
