We all got hand written letters today from Austin!!!!! They were so sweet. He said he has noticed lately how he has physically grown. He said he was kneeling for prayer and before he began he caught a glimpse of himself in the mirror and he couldn't believe how much he has changed. He said, "Lately, I have been noticing how alike we are mom. Simple things as when I drive I always have my hand on my leg like you do. I have grown up a lot lately. The other night I did a bunch of push-ups and realized how older and bigger I look. We have a mirror in our room and when I was kneeling that night I saw myself in the mirror and it surprised me how older I seemed." Aahhhh.....
He is loving his district. He said he calls the companionships under him each night to check on their day and to make sure the sister missionaries got in safe and sound. Every night, the sisters tease him and say, "Yes dad. We got in okay." Funny.
He sounded happy and gave each of the kids some advice. It was great. I miss him so much. Here are a few pictures he sent me a while ago. He sent me about 300 so these never got posted.
Some fellow missionaries at a leadership training meeting. He didn't tell us a thing about them.
