Hermana Nelson

My sister got her mission call in July to Paraguay Asuncion North mission ! I cant believe it, but Wednesday she left to go to the MTC! I drove up north with my family to drop her off at the MTC. It was such a bitter sweet day! I am so proud of her and her desire to go on a mission! She is going to be the best missionary in the world! I cant wait to start getting letters from her and hearing about her amazing experiences! I feel so blessed to have a sister out on a mission! I am going to miss her like crazy! My brother will be going on his mission in March, so pretty soon I will have 2 sibilings out on a mission. That will be so crazy! Holidays will be way different with the 2 of them not there! It will be 3 years before we will all be together again as a family! That makes me so sad, but I know that they are doing the right thing! Way to go Amanda! You will do awesome! I love you and I already miss you so much!

Best of luck to her! Lindsey is out in the field now (Minnesota--Spanish speaking), and really struggled adjusting from the MTC to the field. I hope Amanda has a fabulous experience!
